It happens! In fact, it happens more often than we tend to believe. First, there's fear. Second, there's Thrive Financial Services. We're here to make sure your plan stays on track no matter what life throws at it.
We find most times when we sit with clients that want to have an annuity review done as part of their retirement road map review, because they don't understand what they bought. Most times annuities are sold, they're not bought by the consumer. So, we dive in very deep. We get as clinical as someone wants us to be, but people do walk out with complete and utter clarity. We understand them inside and out.
What makes Thrive unique? Our process, our team work, our experience.
"Our unique process is really trying to completely understand the position of the person or people that we're sitting in front of. We don't take generalities. We want to know you. We want to know exactly what's going on. What's your fear? What's your strength? What's your concern? What do you got? Where do you want to go?"
Learn about the common mistakes that people are making while planning retirement and in retirement in general. And one of the biggest mistakes we have come across when people walk through that door, is they didn't think they didn't need a financial advisor, and they've already made the mistakes, but sometimes we can help them out.
What we try to communicate to the folks that we get the opportunity to sit down with is just try to take a step back. Remove the emotion from the equation. Watch what the successful people are doing, and that's how you can base a decision.
Among American's 65 and older, almost twice as many women, as me, are living with financial hardship. 68% of all of the elderly poor, are women. Again, we've set it before, and we'll say it again, women do tend to outlive men.
We have come to the realization that in meeting with couples and a lot of time single women, whether they're single through a divorce situation, through being widowed, or just never being married, and had very little knowledge of the family financial situation. If women are outliving men statistically, they need someone to help answer the questions. That's why we're here!
Sometimes people spend more time planning a wedding or planning a vacation or planning this or that, when they should spend a lot more time planning their retirement.
We're gonna talk about three main things and what to do about them if you are getting an offer about early retirement planning, or early retirement packages.
