62-year-old Couple Retires Almost 4 Years Earlier with an Alternate Income Strategy
(don’t forget to checkout the video of this case study too)
💾 be sure to save for later 💾
⭐️ Here are the details ⭐️
☑️ Kramer & Elaine are 62
☑️ They want to retire in 5 years with $10,000 per month
☑️ Kramer has $650k in total 401k’s (which Kramer is maxing)
☑️ Elaine has $300k in total IRA’s
☑️ They have $300k in non-qualified investments
☑️ They will get $4,000/month from Social Security at age 67
☑️ They will take $2,800/month from SS if they take it now
⭐️ Analysis of Retiring in 5 Years ⭐️
☑️ Their current retirement assets are worth $1.25M right now
☑️ 401k contributions + 6% annual return = $1.8M in 5 years
☑️ Taking a 4% annual withdraw generates approximately $6,000 per month (which is the most common retirement income strategy that most retirees follow)
+ Their total Social Security Income provides another $4,000 per month
Bringing their total in 5 years to just over $10,000 per month
⭐️ Using An Income Maximization Strategy — Can They Retire Now?! ⭐️
☑️ We will use an annuity to maximize their guaranteed, lifetime income
☑️ $750,000 will create an immediate income of $4,430 per month
☑️ Their remaining $500,000 can safely generate another $1,667 per month (following The 4% rule)
+ Collecting Social Security Early provides another $2,800 per month
Bringing their immediate total to $8,897 per month
So they’re about $1,000 per month short of their goal (or 89% funded using the income annuity).
🚨 But what if they wait just 1 more year⁉️
☑️ Annuity income increases to a guaranteed $4,848 per month
☑️ Social Security Income increases to $3,000 per month
☑️ Plus 1 more year of 401k contributions = $560k ($1,868/month at 4%)
Bringing their total income to $9,716 per month in 1 year.
🌟So what does this actually mean⁉️🌟
They can retire almost 4 years earlier by simply utilizing an insurance company for maximum income.
🔥 Plus they’ve increased the safety of their portfolio
🔥 They’ve ensured they can never outlive their money
🔥 And they are able to take much higher income withdrawals from their retirement assets than 4%
So, by just looking at retirement income planning from a different angle….
…. you might be able to retire several years earlier than expected.
