retirement planning

Retirement planning refers to the process of making financial provision for retirement before reaching retirement age. This usually results in the purposeful setting aside of money, or other assets, with the intention of deriving an income from those assets at retirement age. Retirement planning also incorporates all the capabilities within wealth management to help your future needs be accommodated while retired. The goal of retirement planning is to achieve financial independence so that the need to be gainfully employed is optional rather than a necessity.
