Retirement Planning

Retirement planning is the important task of deciding how you will live once you retire. Retirement planning involves a number of factors, including at what age you hope to retire, how much money you will need to cover living expenses coupled with the things you plan to do once you've retired, and where your money will come from.

Bespoke retirement plans to suit you

Each person's situation is unique, and therefore, retirement planning isn't one standard plan for every person. Saving money for retirement through one or all of the available retirement planning options is the first place to start. Many employers have retirement planning options available to their employees; other individuals unfortunately have to set up their own provision. Bartholomew Hawkins can help you review all your options and come up with a retirement plan that is tailored to your circumstances.

Potential expenses and potential income

Planning for retirement involves more than just saving money. It's important to determine as closely as possible what your potential expenses are and compare them to your anticipated income. For instance, if you will be able to pay your mortgage off before retiring, that is one less expense you'll need to cover. Our retirement planning advice can help you review your current financial situation to find any areas that can contribute to your retirement plan. For example, it may be necessary to find a way to pay a small amount towards your mortgage while working in order to carry no debt into retirement, thereby lowering the amount of money you will need each month.

Retirement tax planning

Depending on what age you hope to be when you retire, planning for retirement should also involve tax planning. Bartholomew Hawkins can help you create a tax efficient savings and investment plan that works for you.
