FAQ

What if I'm underprepared for retirement in my 50s?

Consider delaying retirement (to 65), lowering lifestyle goals, downsizing property, and planning part-time work. Even 10 more years significantly grows assets.

Lump sum or annuity for severance?

Depends on your situation. Lump sum offers investment flexibility but higher taxes; annuity has tax benefits but less liquidity. Consult a professional.

What stock allocation is appropriate in 50s?

The "100 minus age" rule suggests 40-50% stocks in your 50s. Adjust based on your risk tolerance.
