Mark Fricks of Masterplan Retirement Consultants talks about the second side of the pyramid which is income. He explains the concept of sequence of returns and how it can affect income. When he works with clients, he looks at the income flowing in, assesses the tax ramifications, identifies the any income gaps, and then offers strategies to remedy the gap. For those near retirement, Social Security appears to be less reliable, inflation continues to rise, everyday spending tends to be increasing, and health care is becoming more costly. All of these are solid reasons to do proper income planning for retirement.
