If you are 50 to 65, this is the conversation to have.

When to retire. When to take Social Security. When to enroll in Medicare. These are the decisions that matter most in the years leading up to retirement, and there is no better time to get clarity than now.

Who this is for

Anyone approaching or already in retirement who wants a plain answer to the question: am I actually on track? Most of Chad’s existing clients are already retired, which means he has spent years helping people make this exact transition.

What Clients Bring to This Conversation

My favorite part of being a financial advisor is providing clarity. I see the light bulbs go on when they realize they can retire, and were thinking they weren’t on track.

Retirement Timing Questions We Hear Often

When should I take Social Security?
It depends on your specific financial plan, not a rule of thumb. Your income needs, other assets, and health considerations all factor into the right timing, which is why this decision works best as part of a full plan review.
The only way to know is to look at your specific numbers. A first conversation typically includes building a preliminary plan on the spot, so you get a real answer instead of a guess.

Medicare enrollment has specific windows tied to your 65th birthday and, in some cases, your employment status. Missing these windows can affect your coverage and cost, so this is worth reviewing well ahead of time as part of your retirement timeline.

It depends on your health, family history, assets, and what you want your plan to protect against. This is a common concern in the years leading up to retirement and is worth reviewing as one piece of a full financial plan.

Comparing their retirement plan to a friend’s or family member’s. Every plan is different because every person’s goals, assets, and timeline are different. What works for someone else’s retirement is not necessarily right for yours.
