Graduation - After school, many alternatives typically present
themselves. Where will you live? What job should you take? Should you consider more education? The choices you make can have an
impact on your finances, so be sure to get the guidance you need.
First "real" job - Upon landing your first job, a new set of
alternatives will face you. How much should you contribute to your
401(k)? Which benefits should you elect? Should you rent or buy?
We can help you determine the most appropriate options for these and
other questions you have.
Just married - Together with all the joy that comes from being
newlyweds, some important decisions are also needed. Where
will we live? Where will we spend the holidays? When
will we have children? How much insurance do we need? While
some of these choices are personal in nature, there is a financial
component to many of them that GuideStream can assist you with.
Parenthood - If you have children, you will likely be faced with
additional financial considerations. Are we able to cut back
to one income? What happens if one of us unexpectedly dies? How do
we save for future education expenses? GuideStream's advisors can
help you through these crucial decisions so that you can be armed
with the knowledge to make the best decisions for your growing
family.
Empty Nest - With your children out of the home, you may still have
the financial concern of helping them through college. Perhaps
you will assist with weddings or first home purchases. Maybe
less life insurance is needed, or you can finally afford to focus
more attention saving for retirement. Whatever empty nest
issues you face, our team can help you navigate.
Retirement - At what age will you be able to work because you want
to, not because you have to? Are you saving enough to scale back
when you desire? What will 'retirement' look like for you? Travel?
Missions work? Consulting? Time with the grandkids? New hobbies? GuideStream advisors can run multiple scenarios to help take the
guesswork out of your decision-making.
Legacy - What do you want to be remembered for? How will you provide
for your family and the causes you care about? In your
planning, we help you think through these questions and propose
strategies that may be of benefit to your life and desired legacy.
