retirement planning
Future income preparation
Retirement planning is the process of preparing financially for life after you stop working.
It typically involves estimating future expenses, setting savings goals, and choosing investment vehicles like 401(k)s or IRAs.
We started retirement planning in our thirties.
Good retirement planning accounts for inflation, healthcare costs, and desired lifestyle.
