What if I don’t have enough income to retire? What if I run out of money before I run out of life? What if I’m taking too much risk with my accounts? What if I forgot about the taxes I’ll have to pay in retirement? What if something happens to me and I’m no longer able to make decisions? These are questions all potential soon-to-be retirees should ask now, before they’re potentially hit with the question, “What now?” Because planning ahead can help make for the best scenario. From there, you can consider alternatives or changes to the plan. But what’s important is that you have the plan to begin with, and you’re addressing these questions now, rather than later.
