Michael Canet is a financial planner, estate planning attorney and host of The Savvy Investor TV and Radio Show, where he and Savvy Investor guests help listeners create, grow, and preserve their wealth. In this article, Canet discusses the difference in mindset between focusing on gains, or focusing on reducing liabilities when planning retirement.
Glen Burnie, MD – August 30, 2013 – Estate planning attorney and host of The Savvy Investor TV and radio show, Michael Canet, recently published an article on The Savvy Investor website on why a sudden windfall of money is no guarantee of success in retirement – and how you can build a solid foundation without winning the lottery. In this article, “Why Plan For Retirement When You Could Buy Lotto Tickets?” Canet says you don’t need a lot of money; you just need to protect what you have.
Canet writes, “Successful retirees construct their budgets to limit their debts and expenditures, keeping more than they lose – which works with any income level. Instead of focusing on their asset management, they turn their attention to limiting their expenses. When you apply this reasoning to your investment portfolio, it translates to staying low-risk with your investments and, most importantly, understanding any and all fees you may be paying.”
