The thought of health insurance policy is uppermost on a person’s mind, particularly for those who are looking to retire even before the age of 65, i.e. before the beginning of coverage of Medicare. This is so, because the premiums to be paid on such policy are usually very high to be supported by a bounded and fixed income.

As an extra incentives on your taking retirement early, your employer can grant you to take up the premium on your health insurance policy, which being full in nature can be very costly proposition at the beginning, but think how it would be, if you would have to buy an individual health insurance policy rather than being in a collective group. Don’t you think it would be more expensive? Such individual policy may not also give you similar set of privileges that a group policy offers.

Many companies are providing the basic health insurance policies carrying high-deductible at a reasonable premium since they have an eye on enrolling you in Medicare Part C (additional policy) as soon as you take on retirement.

There is always other alternative to yourself doing the cost-cutting and effective planning to budget for the expected medical expenses on your own between the time you retire and till you turn 65. This option can be very good particularly if you have been maintaining excellent physical fitness.

It is very essential that an advance planning is done for retirement and it is all the more fruitful if such planning is done very early in the life.

Recession is a reality today and one can effectively survive it if some adequate measures are taken at the earliest. Here…I try to suggest you some simple yet effective steps to beat this dreaded monster.

  • All the utility bills have to be paid on time…Not only that, try and search for alternative service provider and see if you can switch over to reduce your recurring expenses…You need to glance through all the utilities like power supply, energy, phones, television content providers, broadband, insurance, banks etc. Do undertake switching if it does not involve too much hassle.
  • Do not be in debt in such times…That is a strict No-NO. If you are already in it, take the help of an advisor and find ways to pay them off…Sooner. The better.
  • Try to reduce your daily expenses. Make it a habit to buy things which are absolutely necessary. Do even try cheaper brands; they might be equally good to what you have been used to buying.
  • Every grocery does give away some quantity here and there as free samples. Do get hold of these, as they can eventually help you save few dollars. If the grocery likes giving away vouchers, do not hesitate to using them too.
  • Why do you always need to have lunch outside when you are at office? Instead, have the lunch prepared at home and carry it to office. You might as well advise your children to carry lunch boxes instead of food allowance. This would after all, help them understand the bad times a lot better.
  • Request your Office boss to allocate some work that can be done at home every couple of days. You can save on your fuel bill but you need to be equally efficient at home to benefit from it repetitively. You may even form a carpool service with your associate.
  • Make use of a smaller vehicle for going to office. Bigger ones are good for show-offs but they are not fuel efficient and burn a hole in your pocket.
  • Ensure you have a stable job. If you do not have one, try changing to a career that offers better job stability. Do take up a learning course or two, if needed, for better prospects.
  • People with spare money should invest in equity since recession does offer stocks at good bargain value. Once the recession is over, the return would be phenomenal in the longer run.
  • If your house is big enough, do give a room or two on rent. Sell old stuff lying idly in your house too. Look at ways to supplement your salary with additional resources.

A Retirement Gift…Just for You !!!

From the very initial days of stressed office work, people can begin to think of retirement….the days full of fun and idling away…..doing what pleasures the most….reading…or even traveling long distance….basically getting free from the stresses of daily routine work.

At leisure!!

At leisure!!

Due to better health care, people live longer as compared to old times and hence certainly look forward to plenty golden years which are rich in comfort and pleasure.

Do not wait for other people to plan your retirement for you….instead…take the initiative and plan it out your self.

Retirement planning is definitely a very tedious task and involves lots of assessing of financial statements and insurance policies. But then, these are necessary to be done to achieve long term fruits. When you provide for all that you require as support in your old age, you avoid being dependent on government sponsored schemes which are anyway so less and leaves you dissatisfied.

Benefits of Retirement Planning :

Retirement planning is not just about going through bank statement and mutual fund accounts…but instead estimating and providing for all your expenses that would make your golden years worry free. When you plan out all your finances for your retirement, it also provides an added satisfaction of having a secured future.

Retirement planning is not something that can be achieved in a single day….rather it has to be continuously engaged every decade after decade. One needs to change the style of investing as one grows old…..let go of riskier investments as opt for safer bonds and debt products as one reaches near final years.

Have a well defined plan which classifies the risk tolerance of your investments with respect to your age group. At young age, your investments can be loaded in favor of riskier assets like equity stocks and lesser in debt. As you grow, remember to shuffle the portfolio to reduce the equity component and increasing the debt. This is particularly necessary since equity investments are very volatile and when down, requires time for resurrection. At young age, one has time on its side, and hence the stress on equity….since it offers good risk-reward ratio.

When one strictly adheres to this age v/s. risk rule in his portfolio planning, he ensures himself a good sum of money to give him comfort in the golden years.
