3 Tips to Keep Your Retirement Safe

Make sure your retirement is safe by following these 3 tips.

3 Tips to Keep Your Retirement SafeIn today’s volatile market, if you are planning to retire or already retired, you want to make sure your retirement is safe.  There are a variety of things you should do to keep your retirement safe, but these 3 are key:

Know Your Risk Level

As a general rule of thumb, the younger you are, the larger the percentage you can invest in stocks.  As you get closer to retirement, your risk tolerance increases and as a result, your investments should shift to safer, less volatile options.

Shift To More Conservative Investments

The closer you are to retirement, the more conservative you should be.  If you are 5 years away from retirement or already retired and the market crashes, it could be devastating to your 401(k) balance.  Younger investors don’t have to worry as much about volatile markets because they have time on their side.

Keep Short-Term Money Safe

Once you retire, your living expenses, as well as other necessities for what you want to do during retirement, should be low-risk or no-risk investments.
