Planning for the Ideal Retirement: Perspectives from Financial Advisors
Retirement is a time that many people look forward to, a time to relax and enjoy the fruits of their labor. But what does the ideal retirement look like for financial advisors themselves? As it turns out, just like their clients, financial advisors have a wide range of dreams and aspirations for their retirement years.
Tiffany Lee, an associate exit planner at Ellevate Advisors, knows firsthand the variety of retirement dreams that financial advisors have. From spending more time in the sky as an amateur pilot to competing in marathons and bike races, to traveling the world in an RV or exploring Europe, the possibilities are endless.
But for Lee, the key to a fulfilling retirement is not just leisure, but also finding meaning and purpose in everyday life. It’s about filling your days with activities that bring you joy and fulfillment, whether that’s pursuing a hobby, learning a new skill, or giving back to the community.
So what do financial advisors envision for their own dream retirements? According to a recent survey, planners across the country have a wide range of aspirations. Some dream of traveling the world, while others want to spend more time with family and friends. Some plan to start a new business or pursue a passion project, while others look forward to volunteering and giving back to their communities.
No matter what their retirement dreams may be, one thing is clear: financial advisors are looking forward to a future filled with purpose, meaning, and fulfillment. And with careful planning and preparation, they can make those dreams a reality. So whether you’re a financial advisor or a client, it’s never too early to start thinking about what your ideal retirement looks like – and how you can make it happen.
