Retirement is the most expensive “purchase” faced by most individuals.
To properly forecast the value of assets during retirement, it is important to consider several other variables when estimating a person’s total retirement liability, such as their optimal replacement rate, their forecasted retirement period, and what it truly means to fail (or succeed).
Retirement professionals need to have a framework for understanding and projecting retirement costs for each client, and a process for better estimating the true cost of retirement.
In "Estimating the True Cost of Retirement" by David Blanchett, you will:
- Gain a better understanding of the key variables required to estimate the cost of retirement;
- Learn of a more effective approach for calculating an income replacement rate;
- Learn of a better spending model to help you understand how expenses tend to change throughout retirement and the implications of these changes on the retirement need;
- Discover today’s “safe” initial withdrawal rate.
