Retirement Income Evaluation and Planning
Generating income from the retirement savings you have accumulated over your lifetime in an efficient way can often be a complex task. Managing retirement income is an ongoing exercise in balancing guaranteed sources of income such a Social Security and fluctuating income from your investment portfolio, with living expenses and desired spending levels. Today’s retirees want to know if the assets they have saved for retirement are aligned toward their goals to achieve the lifestyle they desire in their retirement years. Budgeting, spending, and investing habits and strategies should be reviewed and adjusted regularly to help ensure your retirement plan is designed for the long term.

Today, my son stands even taller---as a soon-to-be graduate of Roanoke College with a bachelor's in business administration and a minor in Finance. I've watched Porter balance basketball, internships, FINRA exams, sports injury and academics with focus, determination, and resilience. I've been privileged to watch my son grow into a man of character, discipline, and ambition--qualities that serve him on and off the court. His ambition has also led him to pursing his MBA very soon. As a father and professional, I couldn't be prouder. Congrats Porter!
