Steps Helpful Links A secure and happy retirement is a worthy goal. Each person has different goals for retirement.
Some individuals plan to continue working until they are unable.
Planning for retirement is something that cannot begin too early and is a critical part of an overall financial plan. The first step is to assess the financial responsibilities you will have after your estimated retirement age. For many, retirement planning begins with Social Security. For those who participate in Social Security, or who have contributed for the minimum length of time, full benefits will begin upon retirement at age 65 or reduced benefits at age 62. Beginning with those who turn 62 in the year 2000, full benefits will not begin until age 67.
