Your New Years Retirement Resolutions

Writer's picture: MelissaMelissa

As we head into 2021, it is a good idea to consider the resolutions you might be planning. You might want to do things like exercise more often or drink more water. However, you ought to also consider saving for retirement and reaching any other financial goals that you might have as well. Remember, this is the time of year when you get a clean slate to become a different person and do better in areas that you may have struggled with in the past. Think About The Vital Documents You Need To Work On It is not the most pleasant thing in the world to think about, but part of getting older is thinking about your will. We all know that we will pass away at some point, but not enough of us do anything about making sure our family is taken care of when that time comes. It is almost a little selfish not to plan ahead for the inevitable. With this in mind, the new year is the perfect time to sit down with an estate planner or any other expert who can help you get some of those documents in order. Invest In An IRA An individual retirement account (IRA) is a great option for the person who is nearing your time to retire (or also for those who are far away from it). It is a way to save and invest for your non-working years. You cannot allow yourself to fall into the false notion that the government with its social programs will be there to bail you out. We have to hope that such programs will exist for future generations. Even if you are lucky enough to receive your full government entitlement benefits, it still may not be enough to get you through retirement comfortably. Investing in an IRA can help a person increase their odds of having a comfortable lifestyle because it helps them grow the funds that they put into it at a nice clip for most people. The earlier a person starts their IRA investing, the larger their returns tend to be over time. Create An Emergency Fund Life is far from predictable. You can estimate what your expenses will be for routine things, but it is unlikely that you will plan properly for those things that can sneak up on you. There could be emergency medical expenses, or any number of other issues that you have to face going forward. If you are wise with your planning, you will go ahead and put in some extra budget space for the things that no one sees coming. Just go ahead and add an extra ten to twenty percent to whatever number you believe would allow you to retire comfortably. Then, you will have a margin of error built in to your figures. Take Stock Of The Health Care Picture The picture of health care in the United States is a pretty fluid thing. It is not like in other countries where there is universal coverage for a lot of people. Instead, the United States has an odd hybrid type system that changes all the time. It is a good idea to take a look at the particular mechanics of the healthcare system as you reach the age when you could retire. Just having some idea of what is or is not covered can help you get a better grasp on what moves you need to make next to protect yourself in this area.
