Will you need to decide between a lump sum payout or a monthly pension amount? Do you worry if you’ll outlive your current retirement savings and if you have enough? Do you wonder what you’ll do with the time you’ll gain once you retire from your job and if you will still feel fulfilled without the work you currently enjoy? If you answered yes to any of these questions, we can help you!
Retirement planning is offered as a benefit of doing business with us, and we can help you evaluate your preparedness for retirement. Retirement planning with Christian Financial Advisors® not only looks at the monetary side of retirement, but also the physical, spiritual, and emotional aspects of making the immense change that is retirement.
We incorporate financial calculators, income analysis tools, and several questionnaires to help us identify the areas of your retirement that you are prepared for, and those that may need attention and changes. Contact us to set an appointment with Bob to discuss your situation.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row top=”10px” bottom=”10px” bg_color=”#163463″][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1472147374664{padding-top: 5px !important;padding-right: 10px !important;padding-bottom: 5px !important;padding-left: 10px !important;}”]

Maybe. Maybe Not.
By Bob Barber
I’m reading a fantastic book right now called “The New Retirementality” that I learned about at a national Christian financial conference in Orlando, Florida. This book exposes a myth we have come to believe in America: when we obtain a certain age like 65, we should retire, and retirement is automatically an easy, enjoyable transition.
While attending the presentation, the author, Mitch Anthony, had us do several assessments that really opened my eyes about the myth of retirement. Why? Retirement for many can actually create boredom, isolation, lack of structure, and loss of identity. On the other hand, if retirement is done right, is can be full of purpose driven activities, an active social life, community engagement, physical activity and supporting worthy causes. A wonderful thing!
I highly recommend that anyone who is about to retire, thinking about retiring, or is already retired, to read “The New Retirementality” by Mitch Anthony. Also, if you would like to take the assessments I completed at the conference that were so eye opening, please contact me. These assessments complement the Fit to Retire® coaching program we offer. As always, if you need a retirement guide, I am here to help you.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row top=”0px” bottom=”0px”][vc_column][vc_column_text]
