Today’s retirees have seen many changes in the financial world in their lifetime; perhaps none more dramatic than the last 10 years. In this time we’ve seen unprecedented growth, crippling losses, corporate corruption at the highest level, and the lowest interest rates in the last 50 years.
At Hackett Retirement Solutions & Insurance Inc., we call our approach “Safety Centered Retirement Planning.” We help our clients educate themselves on ways to reduce or eliminate risk, have a guaranteed income stream, and protect what they have worked so hard for.
Do you have low risk tolerance, yet have money in volatile investments?
Are you playing "catch up," hoping to get back to where you once were?
Would further loss, due to market volatility, make you uncomfortable?
Is protection of your home, due to unforseen illness, important to you?
Do you know the "tax time bombs" associated with your IRA or 401K?
Is it important that you save your heirs from going through probate ?
If so, we may be able to assist you. Please call (978) 499-9400 to schedule a free consultation in our Newburyport office or your home. (Yes, Mr. Hackett still makes house calls.)
