    Working with a CFP® professional can be an important step toward reaching your financial goals. Not only do these advisors meet rigorous education and experience requirements, but they are also held to some of the highest ethical and professional standards in the industry.
    Education
    CFP® professionals must master nearly 100 integrated financial planning topics, including:
    - Investment planning
    - Tax planning
    - Retirement planning
    - Estate planning
    - Insurance planning
    - Financial management
    In addition to completing a comprehensive financial planning curriculum approved by the CFP Board, or equivalent academic coursework, CFP® professionals are required to complete continuing education coursework, including a CFP Board approved code of ethics course, to ensure their competence in financial planning.
    Examination
    CFP® candidates must pass a comprehensive 6-hour CFP® Certification Examination that tests their ability to apply financial planning knowledge in an integrated format. The exam is notoriously difficult and only 64% of people who took the exam in 2017 passed. Based on regular research of what planners do, the exam covers:
    Establishing and defining the Client-Planner relationship
    Gathering information necessary to fulfill the engagement
    Analyzing and evaluating the client’s current financial status
    Developing recommendations
    Communicating recommendations
    Implementing recommendations
    Monitoring the recommendations
    Practicing within professional and regulatory standards
    Experience
    CFP® professionals must have a minimum of three years experience in the personal financial planning process prior to earning the right to use the CFP® certification marks. As a result, CFP® practitioners possess financial counseling skills in addition to financial planning knowledge.
    Ethics
    As a final step to certification, CFP® practitioners agree to abide by a strict code of professional conduct, known as CFP Board’s Code of Ethics and Professional Responsibility, that sets forth their ethical responsibilities to the public, clients and employers. CFP Board also performs a background check during this process, and each individual must disclose any investigations or legal proceedings related to their professional or business conduct.

    I disagree with all of the comments that say "this should be a quick answer". It would be dangerous for a financial advisor to put together a video that quickly says Yes or No on whether someone 60-years old can retire with $1.8M ($1.2 liquid assets). There are 10-15 variables that need to first be answered, many Troy went through. The people coming to this channel are either 1) knowledgeable about the intricacies of retirement planning and want to compare their thoughts against Troy's or 2) ignorant to many of the retirement planning intricacies and need to listen to this video to learn more. So, my feedback is, if you are looking for a quick Yes/No answer to your retirement questions, perhaps don't start a 26-minute video.

    I think this guy can take any amount and make it look like a 42 % chance of failure. Market goes down you cut your spending just like you would if your salary went down in working years. 1.8 million plus social security at 66/67. You will be fine just rebalancing portfolio when market is down and cut spending as needed.

    at 60 years of age and having a net worth of $1.8 million seems far fetched. That means if you worked 35 years, that is roughly saving $51500 a year. Not a lot of people made 51500 a year in total 35 years ago. Not everyone had the luxury of buying a house. I have my own my own house, make over a 100k now, but when I started out, I made no where what I make today 35 years ago. I do not have nearly 1.8 million and I will do just fine. I plan to retire happily in comfort, not a rock star.

      I am 41, I have a net worth of $900,000...I track my net worth quarterly and annually...A "double wide" or modular home on some acreage 10+ Will do me fine. I would disagree that being 60 and having a net worth of 1.8 being far fetched. Due to investments and compound interest, my money makes more than I do. I work a middle class job, live well, daily drive a paid for GT500 mustang. I will have a net worth of over 1.8 million by 60...You do not have to make a lot, to have a lot. I concur with your retire in comfort statement.

I'm guessing it's close to just better than 1/2 that. depending on the breaks..

      @mrloco loco - Mr. Loco - your timing was impeccable, because I don’t think you could have selected a better four decade window in which to be heavily invested in the US stock market. But as they say, past results are not an indicator of future performance!

    I have too many friends that like me are now 70 and spending is NOT declining.. I retired at 60 - now 70 with the go-go years fully in-tact. For someone with decent health I would push go=go years decline to 80. I think many retirees like me that retired ten years ago avoided the sequence of return mine field early on are more confident they can spend at the same rate they did in their 60s (inflation adjusted). I am seeing too many retirment planning scenairos with the the decline in spending when you hit 70 which is a risky assumption.

    Yes you can at an income level per year of 10,000/month (assuming long term return of 8%) and the monies will last over 30 years. Answering a question like this simply makes about as much sense as this answer. I appreciate the complexities, but wish your title was more like "Considerations if you are 60 with $1.8 million and want to retire". The answer to all these questions is simply YES, but all contain caveats and considerations based on your personal situation. I could retire on $300,000 at age 60, but would I want to given the income flow it would throw off? Highly doubt it.

      @michaelkelcy9669 2 роки тому

      @mrloco loco Currently real interest and equity returns are negative, and that's unlikely to change any time during the next decade. $1.2M liquid assets for, let's say, 30 years, is a tough lift. Try plugging a return of 1% to 2% in your retirement planner and see how it goes. The CPI has more than doubled in the last 30 years, and that's after a decade or so of very low inflation. I didn't say he couldn't, I said it's sort of a crap shoot.
