Unprepared… Nearly one in three working Americans (32%) are unable to project when they will be able to retire (i.e., their answer to the question “when will you retire” is “I have no idea”). Source: Hartford Retirement Survey, BTN Research Can’t Retire… 47% of Americans currently between the ages of 56-62 would run out of the funds necessary to pay for basic retirement expenditures if they retire at age 65. Source: Employee Benefit Research Institute, BTN Research Scared To Death… More than three out of every five Americans questioned (61%) between the ages of 44 to 75 admit they fear the prospect of depleting their accumulated assets during retirement more than they fear death. More than 3,200 Americans were surveyed for the poll. Source: Allianz Life Insurance Company, BTN Research

• Errors Made • Spend more than you think • No budget ahead of time • Don’t budget for health insurance costs • Don’t think about LTC insurance until it’s too late • Too much risk taken with investments when unnecessary • No Tax Planning • Not enough in Roth IRAs • Try to pay off all debt immediately upon retirement from 401(k) • Social Security considerations – draw early at age 62 or delay until age 66 • Too much exposure to one stock • Placing all my money in bank accounts or CD’s means I’m taking no risk

Social Security: Analysis

This is a hypothetical example and is for illustrative purposes only. No specific investments were used in this example. Actual results will vary. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

• John retired from Nucor. John and Carol have joint earned income of $48,000, $4,000 of interest income, and $3,000 of dividends. Their combined Social Security benefits come to $20,000.

($48,000 + $4,000 + $3,000 + $10,000 [50% SS] = $65,000)

• Their MAGI is therefore $65,000. They may have to pay tax on up to 85% of their Social Security benefits due to being over the $44,000 Provisional Income Threshold

Answer: The return in the S&P 500

Answer: The Return of the Average Equity Investor Source: JPMorgan “Guide to the Markets”

All indices are unmanaged and investors cannot actually invest directly into an index. Unlike investments, indices do not incur management fees, charges, or expenses. Past performance does not guarantee future result. The S&P 500 Index is a broad- based measurement of changes in stock market conditions based on the average

performance of 500 widely held common stocks.

What is the significance? $100,000 starting value and 25 years growth:

2.5% 9.2% Difference
