Index To Income Planning Content
Income planning is by far the most requested, the most misunderstood and the most intimidating area of financial planning for the vast majority of Americans. Please dive into the content here covering a myriad of income planning topics. Let these be the first steps to creating peace of mind over your income plan for the long-term.
What’s a Good Withdrawal Rate for Income Planning?

Don’t You Bet Your Life On It!

What Would Grandpa Say?
Many of you may already know we are not fans of municipal bonds. In fact, we do not hold any municipal bonds in any of our investment portfolios because we think they are too risky. I bet that surprises a lot of people, especially retirees. My astute, well read, late grandfather would be shocked to hear this, having retired from Ma Bell after 42 years, an old school, buy American, blue chip investor. That’s because many advisors routinely recommend that retirees buy and live off of the income generated by supposedly safe individual municipal bonds.
Should I stay or should I go???
General Motors retirees, they will have until July 20, 2012, to make the big decision!
That’s the deadline, just a little over five weeks away, when more than 40,000 General Motors supervisory and white-collar retirees will be forced to make what could be the most important financial decision of their lives. Should they accept GM’s offer of a lump-sum “buy-out” of their monthly pension checks and thus possibly receive the biggest check they’ll ever get? Or should they continue to receive a monthly pension check when GM transfers their retirement plan to a private group annuity from Prudential?
Not Age
This week the investor coach, Paul Nichols, once again pulls back the curtain from his opulent State College studio to expose the truth about retirement planning, investments, estate planning, income planning, and things financially. He really focuses on, it’s about lifestyle and not about age, when it comes to picking a portfolio objective.
Bonds: Strategies or Schemes
According to Fortune Magazine, Warren Buffett, the Oracle from Omaha, will soon release his annual shareholder letter pointing out that “money-market funds, bonds, mortgages, bank deposits…are thought of as ‘safe.’ In truth they are among the most dangerous of assets…their risk is huge.”
Further in the letter, Mr. Buffet writes that “Right now bonds should come with a warning label.” Why is Mr. Buffett so concerned about these types of investments, many of which are embraced by retirees in their search for a safe haven for their IRAs and 401(k)s?
What’s Your Number?
This week the Investor Coach, Paul Nichols, pulls back the curtain once again and continues his investor education series, as it relates to retirement and estate planning. This week we’re talking about what’s your number and trying to get a better understanding of what type of yield you need to get on your portfolio in order to not run out of money by time you turn 100. Once again from the opulent downtown State College studios, Financial Abundance hits another one out of the park. Pay for coaching not for products.

On the podcast from his downtown studios in State College, Pennsylvania, he once again pulls back the curtain on financial matters like retirement planning, life-insurance, investing, and estate planning.
