3 Simple Ways to Invest All of Your Money After You Retire

Keep your $1,000 a year they quietly take: walthendricks.com Retired banker Walt Hendricks answers the question retirees ask most and hear answered least: once you've stopped working, where does all the money actually go? Walt lays out the three simplest ways people handle it, a fixed mix balanced fund, a retirement income fund, and the clever trick of buying a target date fund for a year you never planned to retire in. Along the way he explains why simplicity turns into a safety feature after seventy, and why a plan your spouse could run from a single page in the green binder matters more than squeezing out an extra percent. Then come the three questions that tell you whether any one fund is worth owning: what's the mix, what does it cost each year, and what's really inside it. Walt also covers the boring cash bucket every good plan needs, the difference between insured savings and uninsured investments, and how to spot the steak dinner salesman who wants you to believe complicated means safe. Grab a legal pad, because the homework is three lines of research, and none of it involves buying anything. 3 Simple Ways to Invest All of Your Money After You Retire
