How do you plan for things you can’t predict? There are a lot of factors in life that we can’t be sure will happen, but with proper planning we can prepare for them financially. No one can predict the next market crash. However, we know it will happen eventually. When we do planning, we want your retirement to be the same, whether the market is good or bad.

There’s really no way to know what healthcare will cost or look like in the future. You have to factor in healthcare in your overall retirement plan.
