Global Financial Private Capital is an SEC registered investment advisory firm located in Sarasota, Florida. The document discusses the challenges retirees now face with managing their own investments through vehicles like 401Ks, as pensions have faded. Retirees are living longer than past generations, requiring their savings to last decades rather than years. The article urges conservative investors to focus on consistent, lower-risk returns rather than chasing high returns that involve taking on too much risk.
The basics you need to know to get started with your retirement plan. Includes: compound interest, asset class descriptions, historical returns, costs information and asset allocation.
This document is from a GLP Financial Group workshop about retirement options for school district employees. It discusses the challenges of achieving financial independence in retirement with pensions and social security alone. It emphasizes the importance of saving in qualified savings plans which provide tax benefits. Contributing more and earning higher returns can significantly impact the amount saved for retirement over 30 years. GLP Financial Group offers a four step process to help clients develop and monitor a successful retirement plan.
The last 6 months has prompted many of us to think more about the future than perhaps we normally would. 2020 has been a year of the "unexpected" and we've still got nearly two months left to go. I've been receiving a lot of questions from many of you in the mining and resources industry regarding financial planning, superannuation, insurance, budgeting etc and being prepared for the unexpected. So, to help with this I've put together a small e-book that provides a checklist of the things you should be thinking about at various stages of your life when it comes to your finances. The book doesn’t contain specific advice as it doesn’t take into account your personal circumstances, what it does contain though is a series of prompts to get you thinking. If you’d like to discuss further, please don’t hesitate to message me on LinkedIn.
Retirement opens up a seemingly limitless world of possibilities. But all those choices can be a bit intimidating. The good news is with a bit of care, forethought and preparation, you can not only plot out a successful, fulfilling retirement, but also ensure you’ll have the funds on hand to pay for it.
The following tips can help.
This document discusses strategies for guaranteed retirement income. It begins by identifying harmful risks as the first priority, rather than immediately seeking investment opportunities. It then discusses how volatility in the markets can make it difficult to achieve retirement goals, and how diversification alone may not sufficiently reduce risk. The document suggests that the traditional "4% withdrawal rule" no longer applies for most retirees due to increased market volatility. It presents alternatives like guaranteed lifetime income products that can provide protected retirement income without market risk.

There are approximately 150 PEPs from which to choose so it’s complicated, but the most important differentiator narrows the search considerably.

Success in investing leads to increased wealth and security. Success in investing comes from making sound decisions, paying attention, and taking the time to learn about what t invest in and how to invest. Here are our thoughts about considerations when investing.
https://youtu.be/kZcssfIoQEg
Richard Kronstadt provides four tips for retirement in 2017. First, take a "check up" to evaluate your investments, contributions, and progress toward your retirement goals. Second, invest carefully to provide a stable financial foundation. Third, address any outstanding debts before retirement. Finally, if over 70, only take the minimum required withdrawals from retirement funds each year to control spending and avoid penalties.
If retirement is planned within the next few years, the market downturn starting in late 2007 has significantly reduced many retirement nest eggs. While the original retirement plans may still be possible, changes are likely needed given investment losses. Options to consider include boosting retirement contributions, delaying retirement to allow more time for savings to accumulate, reducing retirement expenses, and managing assets in a tax-efficient manner. A financial advisor can help develop strategies to work towards retirement goals with the current financial realities in mind.
Our mission is to provide care to help people succeed in life. We offer services to help people develop a proper plan, use expert advice, borrow money from others, think long-term, and save over spend. Being disciplined without emotion and starting the process now, even though it is difficult, are the keys to achieving ultimate success and financial security over time.
This document discusses the importance of financial planning and outlines Old Mutual Personal Financial Advice's planning process. It explains that a financial plan helps navigate life's changes and detours. The planning process involves understanding a person's goals and situation, analyzing their needs, recommending solutions, implementing a plan, and reviewing it over time as circumstances evolve. Old Mutual provides holistic financial advice and comprehensive personalized plans to help clients achieve their objectives.
This document discusses using pooled funds to de-risk defined benefit pension plans by reducing volatility relative to liabilities. It suggests that liability-driven investment (LDI) matching funds can potentially reduce risk by 25% while delivering equity-like returns with lower risk through diversified growth funds. However, trustees may be hesitant to use these strategies due to concerns about timing market movements and needing specialist advisers to recommend and implement pooled funds.

His financial planning process involves understanding a client's circumstances and goals, assessing their financial situation, developing recommendations, implementing plans, and providing regular reviews. He advises on areas like retirement planning, estate planning, business ownership, and taxation to help clients ensure they have sufficient funds.
The document summarizes key principles for retirement saving and investing, including that there is no such thing as risk-free investing. It discusses options for withdrawing retirement funds, how today's employees are saving and investing for retirement, and provides homework on comparing retirement fund performance to the top 10 funds. The newsletter aims to provide straightforward retirement planning education and resources.

Retirees often spend too much early in retirement and risk running out of money. While conventional wisdom says retirees spend 75% of what they did working, rising costs of healthcare, housing, education, and supporting family means retirees' expenses may not decrease as expected. Many also retire earlier than planned due to illness or because they can afford to. This misguided notion that spending will decrease leads to faulty retirement planning and savings. To better manage spending in retirement, people should realistically assess their spending habits and make plans to cut costs where possible through budgeting and spending less on unnecessary items.
This document provides an overview of 10 reasons for meeting with the financial advisors to review one's financial plan. It discusses ensuring annual reviews are conducted, assessing risks that could impact one's family, reviewing retirement plans, long term healthcare needs, and encouraging positive values in children through a trust. The advisors aim to provide a comprehensive review of finances and bring all aspects like tax, insurance, estate planning into alignment. The overall message is the importance of regular financial reviews.
Financial planning involves making funds available from current resources to meet future needs. It encompasses risk, estate, tax, investment, retirement, and savings (RETIReS). Financial planning aims to maximize returns while maintaining liquidity and safety of funds. It cannot prevent unforeseen circumstances but can provide financial support. Financial planning needs vary throughout one's lifecycle from being a learner, earner, partner, parent, provider, and retiree. At each stage, different financial priorities and needs exist. Life insurance can be an integrated part of financial planning by helping to create, protect, and accumulate assets at different life stages. The basic objective of financial planning is to allow a comfortable retirement without compromising lifestyle.

The topic covered key investment factors, including:
- what is the purpose of choice in retirement funds;
- what do we know about human behaviour in response to choice;
- and what is the direct and indirect cost of choice and when does choice add value?
The document discusses the various roles involved in managing a retirement fund, including administrators, actuaries, benefit consultants, investment consultants, investment managers, insurers, and auditors. It notes that the board of trustees is fully responsible for appointing these roles and overseeing the fund. However, given the complexity of funds, legislation, and investment options, an independent consultant is needed to coordinate activities, provide unbiased advice to the board, simplify choices, and guide the fund in line with best practices and legislation. The independent consultant plays an important role in navigating conflicts of interest and complexity without being controlled by other stakeholders.

Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

OJP data from firms like Vicinity Jobs have emerged as a complement to traditional sources of labour demand data, such as the Job Vacancy and Wages Survey (JVWS). Ibrahim Abuallail, PhD Candidate, University of Ottawa, presented research relating to bias in OJPs and a proposed approach to effectively adjust OJP data to complement existing official data (such as from the JVWS) and improve the measurement of labour demand.

OJPs are becoming a critical resource for policy-makers and researchers who study the labour market. LMIC continues to work with Vicinity Jobs’ data on OJPs, which can be explored in our Canadian Job Trends Dashboard. Valuable insights have been gained through our analysis of OJP data, including LMIC research lead
Suzanne Spiteri’s recent report on improving the quality and accessibility of job postings to reduce employment barriers for neurodivergent people.
Decoding job postings: Improving accessibility for neurodivergent job seekers
Improving the quality and accessibility of job postings is one way to reduce employment barriers for neurodivergent people.
Vicinity Jobs’ data includes more than three million 2023 OJPs and thousands of skills. Most skills appear in less than 0.02% of job postings, so most postings rely on a small subset of commonly used terms, like teamwork.
Laura Adkins-Hackett, Economist, LMIC, and Sukriti Trehan, Data Scientist, LMIC, presented their research exploring trends in the skills listed in OJPs to develop a deeper understanding of in-demand skills. This research project uses pointwise mutual information and other methods to extract more information about common skills from the relationships between skills, occupations and regions.
BONKMILLON Unleashes Its Bonkers Potential on Solana.pdfcoingabbar
Introducing BONKMILLON - The Most Bonkers Meme Coin Yet
Let's be real for a second – the world of meme coins can feel like a bit of a circus at times. Every other day, there's a new token promising to take you "to the moon" or offering some groundbreaking utility that'll change the game forever. But how many of them actually deliver on that hype?
In a tight labour market, job-seekers gain bargaining power and leverage it into greater job quality—at least, that’s the conventional wisdom.
Michael, LMIC Economist, presented findings that reveal a weakened relationship between labour market tightness and job quality indicators following the pandemic. Labour market tightness coincided with growth in real wages for only a portion of workers: those in low-wage jobs requiring little education. Several factors—including labour market composition, worker and employer behaviour, and labour market practices—have contributed to the absence of worker benefits. These will be investigated further in future work.

7. At the heart of the problem
We might wonder whether anybody really cares any more
- DC members bear the risk
- Employer no longer funder of last resort
- Power lies in theory with the trustee, but in practice with the financial services industry
- And advice from the industry is not entirely trustworthy
8. At the heart of the problem
We might wonder whether anybody really cares any more
- DC members bear the risk
- Employer no longer funder of last resort
- Power lies in theory with the trustee, but in practice with the financial services industry
- And advice from the industry is not entirely trustworthy
Few financial advisers have the right incentives to care
- seldom remunerated on quality of advice
- seldom there to help when things go wrong

10. The Big Retirement Risk
Running out of Money Before you Run out of Time
Erin Botsford, publ. Greenleaf
Good core message
- Take control of your retirement planning
- Plan ahead with the goal in mind
- Take care accepting the wisdom of experts
- Invest assets in retirement for income
Great advice on distinguishing needs from wants and hopes
Good explanation of the characteristics of asset classes
11. The Big Retirement Risk
Running out of Money Before you Run out of Time
Erin Botsford, publ. Greenleaf
Pessimistic on equities
- Yes, equity returns are volatile
- Yes, entry and exit timing can be lucky
- But, no, shares are not just a risky asset
- Not even an asset whose return rewards the risk taken
Shares are a good match for your pension liabilities
Though you must take care of the volatility of share values
12. A Pension Promise to Oneself

13. A Pension Promise to Oneself
Another good core message: take responsibility
- Consider your DC savings the way an actuary would a DB fund
- Work out your liabilities and discount them
- Accumulate assets on the basis of an economically sound plan
- De-cumulate in old age to preserve the value of longevity pooling
Be prepared to make personal fiscal adjustments

Main criticisms

Personal fiscal adjustment unlikely in practice
