Assumptions
Let’s Make Some Assumptions:
- You don’t have a 30 year time horizon to build (or rebuild) wealth for
retirement. Or, if you do, you want the ability to retire sooner.
- You experienced the market decline of the early 2000s.
From the beginning of 2000 until the end
of 2002:
- The return of the S&P 500 Index was -37.65%
- The return of the NASDAQ 100 Index was -67.18%
- You cannot afford to take another market “hit” like you may have
experienced in the early 2000s.
- You cannot afford to be out of the market, however, because your money
will not grow enough to accomplish your goals.
- You want to maximize your retirement income without outliving what you
have saved and obtained through earnings.
