    ABOUT ME
    I’ve always been passionate about personal finance, investing, real estate, and helping people find the freedom to live their life with purpose. But when my dad died in 2015, I tried to help my Mom find an advisor to sort out her finances. Instead of a helping hand, I found an industry of financial advisors dominated by glorified salespeople working on commission - pushing products that were not in my mother’s best interest. Or advisors with minimums that shut-out all but the ultra wealthy. Disappointed with the options, I took matters into my own hands and launched Foundry Financial, a wealth management firm with transparent pricing that specializes in helping provide clarity around money - so you have the confidence to make smart decisions.My goal is to help a million people retire without worry!
    📅 THE BASICS OF RETIREMENT PLANNING
    Retirement planning has several steps, with the end goal of having enough money to quit working and do whatever you want. Our goal is to help people master retirement and retire without worry.
    Step 1: Know when to start retirement planning. When should you start retirement planning? The earlier you start planning, the more time your money has to grow. That said, it’s never too late to start retirement planning. Even if you haven’t so much as considered retirement, don’t feel like your ship has sailed. Every dollar you can save now will be much appreciated later. Strategically investing could mean you won't be playing catch-up for long.
    Step 2: Figure out how much money you need to retire, The amount of money you need to retire is a function of your current income and expenses, and how you think those expenses will change in retirement.
    Step 3: Prioritize your financial goals. Retirement is probably not your only savings goal. Lots of people have financial goals they feel are more pressing, such as paying down credit card or student loan debt or building up an emergency fund.Generally, you should aim to save for retirement at the same time you're building your emergency fund - especially if you have an employer retirement plan that matches any portion of your contributions.
    Step 4: Choose the best retirement plan for youA cornerstone of retirement planning is determining not only how much to save, but also asset allocation. It can make a massive difference in your retirement plan.
    Step 5: Select your retirement investments. Retirement accounts provide access to a range of investments, including stocks, bonds and mutual funds. Determining the right mix of investments depends on how long you have until you need the money and how comfortable you are with risk. It’s often helpful to talk with an adviser to discover the right mix of stocks and bonds.

      Hubby has two pensions for working for a public hospital and school system. Between his pensions and our SS, we will have an annual income of close to $100k per year once he retires at 70 outside of our retirement savings. Before 70, we will pull in at least $55k. So, pensions are still out there.

    Thank you for an informative video. My situation is probably as simple as they come. I quit working at 65 & hoping to delay taking my SS until 70. At that point my wife will be at her FRA & her SSD will turn into to the standard SS benefit. She will then qualify for 50% of what my FRA was & that will be more than hers. SS will be our only income. I was a high earner so our combined SS will come close to $85,000 annually. We have no debt & should be able to live fairly comfortable on that. Your calculator shows that we will only owe a few hundred in Federal taxes. I'm sure bridging through all of our savings to get to 70 is not what most people should do but it will work for us.

    Hi Kevin, Am I right with this >>> If someone continues to work full time past age 70 and at the same time collects SS pension, does that mean that 85% of the SS pension will be added to the full-time income, and IRS will tax the grand total (full-time income + 85% of SS pension) accordingly, right?

    • @foundryfinancial
      @foundryfinancial  4 місяці тому +2

      That’s correct. Assuming you’re over the threshold. Also, I’d you haven’t reached FRA age there’s another consideration.

    I receive VA disability compensation and am paid at a rate higher than 100%. My annual compensation is $51,799. If I do not work and also receive my Social Security retirement... does my VA disability compensation have any affect on if and how much my SS retirement is taxed? I forgot to mention that I am single, if that matters.

    • @foundryfinancial
      @foundryfinancial  3 місяці тому +2

      That’s a tricky one. It’s my understanding that since your VA disability compensation is not considered part of your gross income, it won’t directly impact this calculation. However, any other income you have, including tax-exempt interest and other benefits, may affect whether your Social Security benefits are taxable.

  • @FLOODOFSINS
    @FLOODOFSINS 3 місяці тому +1

    In the first example you say they only make $30,000 which is half of 60,000. You say they don't have to pay any taxes on social security but then you don't mention anything about standard deductions and that they actually do have to pay taxes even if that's their only income. This is why people get so confused

    If we want to do a tax cut, do it on all SS payments. That’s 500 billion over 10 years. The trump tax cuts were 2 trillion over 10 years. I can guarantee you the tax cuts on all SS checks would be more popular.
