care considerations<br />

We are all very aware that living<br />

well in later life is something we<br />

need to work at, whether it is our<br />

diet, our lifestyle or exercising<br />

appropriately, we need to work<br />

at it. In the same way our<br />

finances need to work for us,<br />

to allow us the flexibility to<br />

embrace all of the actions that we<br />

should be taking, from golf club<br />

or gym membership to belonging to walking groups – all<br />

of these things have a financial implication.<br />

We spoke to Laura Pain from The Wealth Care Partnership<br />

about the financial steps we need to put in place…<br />

We are constantly hearing about pension planning being the key<br />

to a comfortable later life, where do we start?<br />

At the end of our working lives we deserve to live well, in comfort and<br />

free from financial anxiety. The state pension only gives us a basic<br />

income, therefore it is hugely important we take responsibility for<br />

ourselves and save for those years when we are not working. Saving<br />

into a pension offers significant tax breaks. By meeting with one of<br />

our planners you will be able to set a target with what you want your<br />

pension to pay out, and you will be advised how much you need to<br />

invest to achieve your target. At the point of retirement you will also<br />

be shown the most tax efficient way to draw your desired income.<br />

In an ideal scenario we would suggest paying into a private pension<br />

as early as you possibly can. Many rely on their State Pension<br />

however over the years this will become harder to survive on because<br />

the cost of living is increasing and we are living longer lives. Paying<br />

into a private pension is so important for your future - there are so<br />

many pension and investment opportunities available to people of<br />

all ages. If you are retired or are thinking about retiring and have a<br />

pension pot that you need to make last then speak to a Financial<br />

Planner and find out what options you have available. Think about<br />

your future….. once your private pension depletes will you survive<br />

on the state pension? There are investment strategies that can<br />

help generate income and although some of us are willing to take<br />

a little more risk than others when it comes to investments there is<br />

something out there for everyone – its just finding what suits you and<br />

your financial needs.<br />

If we have investments but don’t feel that they are working for us<br />

how can you help?<br />

As I have mentioned above with investments there is an element<br />

of risk and how much risk you are personally willing to take. When<br />

dealing with our Financial Planners you would always be required<br />

to complete a risk assessment this allows us to ensure we look<br />

in to finding the right and most suitable investment opportunities<br />

for you. We all have an idea of the annual income we need to pay<br />

our bills whilst living a comfortable life so the investment process<br />

looks at options that can generate an income you desire. As with all<br />

investments there is never a guarantee but the performance can be<br />

reviewed as often as you wish.<br />

And finally, can you sum up, in one sentence, the benefits of a<br />

visit to you at the Wealth Care Partnership….<br />

Our friendly team at The Wealth Care Partnership take the time to<br />

listen to your situation and understand what you want to achieve,<br />

whilst giving you support to make important financial decisions<br />

that you will be happy with for many years to come. Providing a<br />

tailor- made, bespoke service for your own personal circumstances<br />

- we offer solutions to accomplish your goals. If you have existing<br />

pensions or investments that are not giving you the desired results<br />

or if you want to look at options available for your current financial<br />

position then get in touch with us – we are more than happy to help<br />

you find your way.<br />
