Listen Later

What are your financial goals for 2021?

As you approach retirement, there can be many moving parts to your finances. From mortgages and 401Ks to Social Security and Medicare, it can become increasingly challenging to keep up.

That’s why we recommend conducting a thorough review of your finances early in the year. Planning ahead can give you peace of mind that your retirement finances are being taken care of, so you can focus on the more important things in life.

But knowing where to start can be a challenge in itself. That’s why this episode of our Retirement In Action series provides you with a retirement and financial planning checklist. We share what you should review to set you up for a prosperous 2021 and some key information to help you plan your finances.

In this episode find out:

  • The limitations to 401K and IRA contributions for 2021
  • How to consolidate 401Ks and IRAs tax-free
  • How to plan for RMDs
  • How an equity line of credit can provide easy access to emergency cash reserves
  • Why you should refinance sooner rather than later ­– if you’ve got a loan on a property
  • When you should apply for Social Security

Tweetable Quotes:
