Take some time for your own peace of mind to ensure you're not only financially prepared but emotionally and mentally prepared for one of the biggest transitions of your life.

Retirement is closer than you think.

Let's review where you are to see if you're ready.

1. Wealth management is not just for the ultra-wealthy.
For pre-retirees, it can be about making sure all the parts of your financial life work together.

2. As retirement gets closer, finances often get more complex.
You may be thinking about income planning, taxes, investments, estate considerations, and how to protect what you have built.

3. Wealth management goes beyond investing.
It can bring retirement planning, tax strategies, estate planning, saving, and risk management into one more connected strategy.

4. The real value is coordination.
Instead of making one decision at a time in separate buckets, wealth management helps align your financial choices with your long-term goals.

5. Your plan should evolve as life changes.
A good strategy is not static. It should be reviewed and adjusted as markets shift and your retirement timeline gets closer.

6. For many pre-retirees, clarity is the biggest benefit. Knowing where you stand, what you want retirement to look like, and how your assets support that vision can make next steps clearer.

Having conversations with your children about what you're passing down is important. Don't overlook these types of details when it comes to retirement planning and strategy.

It's time, once again, for our listener question of the week!

๐‘„๐‘ข๐‘’๐‘ ๐‘ก๐‘–๐‘œ๐‘›:
"Hello, would you please explain how provisional income taxation works, being 65 and working one day a week, but considering when to take Social Security?"

๐ด๐‘›๐‘ ๐‘ค๐‘’๐‘Ÿ:
There are two key concepts to consider, so we'll outline them below...

1๏ธโƒฃ ๐—ฃ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐˜€๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฎ๐—น ๐—œ๐—ป๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—บ๐—ฒ (๐—ณ๐—ผ๐—ฟ ๐—ง๐—ฎ๐˜…๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป)
This formula determines how much of your Social Security benefit is taxable.

Formula: 50% of your Social Security benefit + 100% of all your other income (including non-taxable interest).

Thresholds (Married Filing Jointly):
- Under $32,000: 0% of your benefit is taxable.
- $32,000 - $44,000: Up to 50% of your benefit is taxable.
- Over $44,000: Up to 85% of your benefit is taxable.

2๏ธโƒฃ ๐—œ๐—ป๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—บ๐—ฒ ๐—Ÿ๐—ถ๐—บ๐—ถ๐˜๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜€ (๐—ณ๐—ผ๐—ฟ ๐—ง๐—ฎ๐—ธ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—•๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ณ๐—ถ๐˜๐˜€ ๐—˜๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—น๐˜†)
Since the texter is 65 (under their full retirement age), there is a limit on how much they can earn from work without having benefits withheld.

2026 Limit: You can earn up to $24,480. For every $2 you earn above that limit, Social Security will withhold $1 of your benefits.

โš ๏ธ ๐—–๐—”๐—จ๐—ง๐—œ๐—ข๐—ก
Taking benefits early while still working can be counterproductive, as you not only have benefits withheld but you also lock in a permanently lower monthly benefit amount.
