To
achieve financial independence for your retirement in 2032 you must maintain
a solid financial
|
|
position.
This is achieved if your projection shows that you have a positive liquid net
worth at the
|
|
end
of the planning horizon. Non-liquidate assets such as your home, business
interest, or life
|
|
insurance
policies are considered unavailable to fund any ongoing cash shortfalls. In
addition
|
|
company
retirement plans are not self directed and thus not considered liquid. You
will need to
|
|
rollover
these assets to an IRA to be considered avaliable on an as needed basis.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At
the end of 2060, you will be in a sound financial position. You will not have
a deficit, and your
|
|
assets
available for liquidation will be worth $6,406,980, which will be available
as an emergency
|
|
reserve.
Assets that are considered available for liquidation are liquid assets such
as cash
|
|
accounts,
bonds, stocks, mutual funds and IRAs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This
analysis of your capital needs is based on the following assumptions:
|
|
|
Matthew will retire in 2032 at the age of 62. Matthew will continue to live for
another 28
|
|
years, until reaching an age of 90 in 2060.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Tammy will retire in 2033 at the age of 62. Tammy will continue to live for
another 28
|
|
years, until reaching an age of 90 in 2061.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Inflation
will average 1.5% over the course of the plan. This rate of inflation is a
user defined
|
|
rate
used for all federal and state tax related calculations including indexing of
tax tables,
|
|
personal
exemptions, standard deduction, retirement plan contribution limitations,
gifting
|
|
limitations,
and any other tax related phase in or phase out that is indexed to inflation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Your
projected investments will appreciate at an average rate of 6%. This does not
reflect the
|
|
cumulative
average rate of return for investment assets. It reflects the average growth
in value
|
|
for
liquid investment capital over the planning horizon, including unrealized
appreciation,
|
|
reinvested
interest and dividends, and ongoing contributions.
