A generation ago, we worked our careers at one company, retired, and they took care of our income and healthcare needs for the rest of our lives. Today's generation of retiring Baby Boomers doesn't have the same safety net of retirement security. The "Grand Experiment" of 401(k)'s to save for and support our own retirements have left us exposed to many additional risks. We are living longer, the market continues to affect our assets and our income, we have more to pay in taxes than we planned for, and the cost of healthcare is much higher, potentially threatening to derail retirement for a generation. Ohio's retirement resource, Chris McIntire helps navigate the new retirement landscape and helps listeners better understand what it takes to build for, achieve, and maintain financial success and confidence throughout our new retirement.

Finance is always in the news and that news can affect what's in your portfolio. Chris discusses some current events and recent news stories to be tracking and paying attention to that could effect your planning and your account balances.

Generating and withdrawing retirement income is a cause of great concern for retirees. How much is too much? How do I know I won't run out of money during my retirement years?

Ohio's retirement resource, Chris McIntire addresses the problems with the traditional planning models that leave all these questions unanswered and how to structure a specific Income Allocation plan for consistent, dependable, lasting retirement income.
