Understanding The Market

The Market. What does this mean when financial advisors refer to it? How is it comprised? How is it measured? What is important for you to know and understand during your accumulation phase until retirement and on? Ben and Seth can't wait to dive into helping you grab a hold and have fun.Is it too late to fix my retirement at 50?No — the 50s are the catch-up years by design. Catch-up provisions let you contribute above the standard limits to 401(k)s and IRAs, the HSA offers triple tax advantages for future healthcare costs, and a backdoor Roth can build a tax-free bucket even if your income is too high for direct contributions. Pair those with a segmented "bucket" strategy — instead of retreating to CDs and cash — and most late starts can still be rescued. The first step is knowing your income need, not chasing a number.
