Work optional
Primary Goals: Reduce taxes, improve investments and create a reliable income stream in retirement.
Age: 63 & 60
John and Sue don’t see retirement on the horizon. Not because they can’t retire, but because they’re not sure when or if they want to stop working.
Sue is a tenured professor and John is a respected physician. They are both very busy and enjoy their careers, which adds meaning to their lives and positively impacts those around them.
They have risen to the top of their respective fields and aren’t ready to give up their careers just because they are approaching traditional retirement age. They have been diligent savers, maxed out their retirement savings and other investments, and accumulated equity within various personal and rental properties.
They are concerned that they are missing something and that their current plan will need to be adjusted for when they decide to transition to the next stage of life. They want an expert to help them evaluate the strategic decisions around their planning and help navigate taxes through retirement.
John and Sue want the option to retire, on their terms when they are ready.
