Tune Out the Noise “When it comes to planning for retirement, turn off the television and don’t answer your phone in the next few months,” shared Paul Tyler, CMO at Nassau Financial Group. There are going to be a lot of election-related money predictions coming at you before November, so instead of listening to them all and making big changes, it might just be smart to turn off the TV. Stick to Retirement Basics Tyler emphasizes that core retirement principles remain unchanged, regardless of who’s in office: “Presidential elections simply won’t impact the basic rules that lead to a safe retirement: spend less than you earn, max out your employer’s contribution to your 401(k) and regularly invest 5-10% of your income in the market.” These are the basics and never go out of style — regardless of who’s in the White House.

Dear Valued Readers, I see many people focusing on the balance in their checking/savings accounts and even retirement plans, but there’s often a missing piece—after-tax investments. While retirement accounts provide tax advantages for the long term, they limit access to your funds until retirement. After-tax brokerage accounts, on the other hand, offer flexibility and liquidity for mid-term goals like buying a home, funding a business, or covering unexpected expenses. By diversifying across both tax-advantaged and after-tax accounts, you create a more balanced strategy that gives you financial freedom throughout your life—not just in retirement. Are you missing this critical piece in your financial plan?

Financial Planning + Retirement Planning | Busy Professionals + Families | Imagine your future | Prioritize what matters to you the most.
Women often face unique challenges that can impact their financial security in retirement, such as lower wages, time out of the workforce for caregiving responsibilities, and longer life expectancies. It's important to set clear retirement goals and create a savings plan to achieve them. Take advantage of employer-sponsored retirement plans like 401(k)s and IRAs, and contribute as much as you can afford. Consider working with a financial advisor to develop a personalized retirement strategy that takes into account your unique circumstances and goals. Additionally, stay informed about changes to retirement policies and programs that may affect your financial security.

Managing Director and Senior Portfolio Manager Anthony Kure, CFP talked with Elizabeth O’Brien at Barron’s about the different vehicles available to build a retirement paycheck, focusing specifically on annuities. Tony shared with Elizabeth that annuities aren’t by themselves good or bad; instead, this type of retirement paycheck option should be evaluated carefully for the pros and cons so that an informed decision can be made for each individual investor.

When it comes to retirement, many Americans are on their own. They’ve saved diligently for years and have to figure out how much they can spend each month to make their money last as long as they expect to live. Yet our do-it-yourself retirement system is cracking: Aside from Social Security, few of today’s workers will have a guaranteed source of income like a pension. And millions now in retirement may be spending too much or too little for their age and other factors. Wall Street, of course, has answers.

There were three important topics Angela and I were able to address with Representative Tiffany's office last week, all designed to help investors save toward a secure and dignified retirement. The first was helping caregivers (who often have unique financial challenges) save for retirement with provisions like a catch-up contribution and elimination of the income requirement to contribute to a Roth IRA. The other two topics demonstrated our support of bipartisan bills that could help increase participation in retirement plans and facilitate savings at younger ages. We had a very good discussion.
