"One of the most common retirement questions is: “When should I start Social Security?”

The answer isn't the same for everyone.

Your retirement timeline, other income sources, health and longevity expectations, spouse's benefits, and overall financial plan can all influence the decision.
That's why we believe Social Security should be considered as part of your broader Empowered Retirement Journey™—not as a decision made in isolation.
Contact us at https://bit.ly/4qQnyID to work through your Social Security claiming decision before you make it.

Before year-end, get on the same page.

"August is a good time to pause and ask:
- Are we still aligned with our retirement goals?
- Are we comfortable with our income plan?
- Have our family priorities changed?
- Do we need to talk about adult children, gifting, or legacy?
- Are there planning conversations we should have before year-end?

Getting on the same page does not mean having every answer today. It means creating space for conversations that can lead to better decisions tomorrow.

Our Family Money Conversation Guide for Retirement can help you begin with simple, thoughtful prompts.

Legacy is about more than what you leave behind.

"Inheritance conversations can feel uncomfortable but avoiding them can leave loved ones with confusion later. Legacy planning is not only about assets. It is also about values, wishes, family priorities, and the people you want to take care of.

You may not need to share every financial detail with your family, but it can be helpful for the right people to understand:
- Who to contact if something happens
- Where important documents are kept
- What values matter most to you
- How you think about family support
- Whether your beneficiary designations reflect your wishes

Estate and tax decisions should be reviewed with appropriate qualified professionals. But the conversation often starts with clarity around what matters most. Our Family Money Conversation Guide for Retirement includes prompts to help you begin.

Helping family is meaningful. Planning for it matters.

"Many retirees want to help their children or grandchildren. That help might come in the form of college support, a down payment, emergency help, gifting, or simply being available when family needs support. Generosity can be a beautiful part of retirement. But without a plan, it can also create stress.

Before providing financial support, it can help to talk through questions like:
- How much are we comfortable giving?
- Is this a one-time gift or ongoing support?
- Will support affect our retirement income plan?
- Do we want to treat children equally or equitably?
- How do we say yes or no with clarity?

Our Family Money Conversation Guide for Retirement can help you think through these conversations before they become urgent.

Risk can feel different when retirement gets closer.

"In many couples, one person may be more comfortable with market movement while the other wants more predictability.

That difference can become more noticeable as retirement gets closer. One person may be thinking about long-term growth. The other may be focused on income, stability, and protecting what they have worked hard to build.

The goal is not for one person to “win” the conversation. The goal is to understand each other and build a retirement strategy that reflects your shared life, your income needs, and your comfort level.

Our Family Money Conversation Guide for Retirement includes prompts to help you talk about risk, income, and what confidence looks like for both of you.

Are you and your spouse picturing the same retirement?

"One spouse may picture retirement filled with travel, adventure, and checking items off the bucket list. The other may picture more time at home, slower mornings, family dinners, and staying close to the people they love. Neither vision is wrong. But when those expectations go unspoken, they can create tension later.

A strong retirement plan should help couples talk through questions like:
- What does an ideal week in retirement look like?
- Where do we want to spend our time?
- How much do we want to travel?
- How much do we want to preserve for family?
- What would help both of us feel confident?

Our Family Money Conversation Guide for Retirement was created to help couples and families get on the same page before decisions feel urgent.

Retirement planning is not just about money. It is about the people you love.

"Retirement decisions rarely affect just one person. They can shape your spouse or partner’s future, influence the support you provide to adult children, and impact the legacy you hope to leave for the people you love.

That is why some of the most important retirement planning conversations are not just about accounts or investments. They are about values, goals, expectations, and family.

Questions worth asking include:
- What do we want this next chapter to look like?
- How do we want to use what we have worked hard to build?
- What do we need to communicate with the people who may be part of our plan?

Our Family Money Conversation Guide for Retirement can help you start those conversations with more clarity and confidence.
