RETIREMENT PLANNING

Here's to your financial freedom.

We believe “Retirement” can be better defined as Achieving Financial Freedom. We think financial freedom means: Doing What You Want, With Whomever You Want, Whenever You Want to do It. What does Financial Freedom mean to you?

AWP Retirement Planning

Take Action

FREEDOM-FOCUSED RETIREMENT PLANNING

Take action toward financial freedom at every stage.

Whether you’ve achieved it, are close to achieving it, or are still defining what it means for you, AWP can has the tools and expertise required to serve as your dedicated team, focused on fostering your financial freedom.

  • Maximize Sustainable Lifetime Income

Develop a plan to create a reliable income stream that supports your lifestyle throughout retirement.

  • Enhance Tax Efficiency

Simply put. Pay less. Implement strategies to minimize taxes on distributions, maximize your net retirement income and preserve the growth of your investment assets.

  • Mitigate Portfolio Volatility

Manage investment risks by balancing growth opportunities with conservative assets to protect against market downturns.

  • Optimize Investment Returns

Use evidence-based strategies intended to help your portfolio achieve strong performance without taking on unnecessary risks.

  • Shape Your Legacy

Align your estate planning with your values, designed to help your wealth benefit future generations.

  • Enjoy Financial Peace of Mind

Live with confidence knowing your retirement plan secures your financial well-being and freedom.

  • Set Clear Retirement Goals

Identify your desired lifestyle, including where you’ll live, activities you’ll pursue, and your ideal retirement age to tailor your savings and pension strategy.

  • Evaluate Your Financial Standing

Create a comprehensive net worth statement, start to aggressively eliminate unnecessary liabilities and outline all current and potential income sources, from salary and pensions to investments.

  • Maximize Retirement Savings

Maximize contributions to tax-advantaged accounts (457(b), 403(b), 401(a), 401(k)s, IRAs, or Roth IRAs). Build a diversified investment portfolio to balance risk and growth potential. Periodically review and adjust based on market conditions and personal circumstances.

  • Plan for Retirement Expenses

Consider basic living costs, discretionary expenses (e.g.,  budget for travel, entertainment, and other non-essential costs), and inflation impact to account for the rising cost of living over time.

  • Understand Social Security & Pensions

Learn how your social security benefits are calculated and the best time to start claiming them. If applicable, understand your pension benefits and payout options.

  • Consider Healthcare Insurance Needs

Plan for healthcare coverage and understand what Medicare will and will not cover with Retiree Healthcare Coverage, Medicare and Supplemental Insurance. Consider insurance to cover potential long-term care costs.

  • Expect the Unexpected

Create a will and consider establishing trusts to manage estate distribution. Designate trusted individuals to make financial and medical decisions if you become unable to do so.

  • Get in the know.

Leverage our resources for those early in their career around FRS Pension & Investment, your 457(b) and other benefits.

  • Establish a spending plan and stay out of debt.

Notice, we didn’t say budget. Nobody likes the “B” word. But, knowing how much you have to save, and how to best manage your liabilities will help you on the path to success.

  • Protect your income.

Make sure you have the right insurances in place to protect your family if you get injured or are killed.

  • Protect your family.

Get basic estate planning documents completed. A Last Will & Testament, Health Care Proxy, Living Will and Durable Power of Attorney at a minimum (possibly a Living Trust, too).

  • Create a savings and investment plan.

Define your goals. What does Financial Freedom Mean to you? Then, set up a plan to get and stay on track.

  • Build an emergency fund.

Maintain a cash reserve to cover unexpected expenses without disrupting your retirement savings.

Achieve financial peace of mind.
