This week we answer a listener question about defined benefit pension plans: I know not a lot of people have defined benefit plans, but everyone keeps talking about needing $1M-$2M at retirement. How would a defined benefit pension get valued, and does the amount needed at retirement include government programs?
We break down the components of retirement income, including government programs like the Canada Pension Plan and Old Age Security, guiding listeners on how to assess their unique financial situation to arrive at an ideal portfolio value for a comfortable retirement. We encourage you to shift your focus from generic averages to a personalized approach in determining retirement needs.
