we all want to know do we have enough
[2]
can we retire
[3]
and how long will our money last well
[5]
the key in retirement is to compound
[7]
good decision after good decision and
[9]
what that does is that helps to optimize
[12]
your overall retirement assets and
[14]
increase the probability that you do
[15]
have enough and you can retire
[17]
and most importantly you don't have to
[19]
to live with anxiety
[21]
throughout retirement worrying if you
[23]
have enough or not in this video we're
[24]
going to look at
[25]
a 66 year old with 800 000 saved and
[28]
really get into some of the nuances
[30]
of different decisions that have to be
[32]
made in the potential outcome
[34]
of those various decisions

hi i'm troy sharp ceo of oak harvest
[52]
financial group certified financial
[54]
planner professional
[55]
host of the retirement income show and
[57]
certified tax
[58]
specialist the purpose of these videos
[61]
is to help
[61]
get you thinking along the lines of what
[64]
decisions need to be made
[66]
and how they are all interrelated from
[68]
social security to health care to
[70]
investments in asset allocation to
[72]
managing risk to taxes
[74]
to really get get you thinking about all
[76]
the decisions that have to be made and
[78]
how
[78]
one decision impacts other decisions as
[81]
we go through these
[83]
what you'll start to see with retirement
[85]
is that it's just
[86]
as much an art as it is a science
[88]
because everyone's situation is so
[90]
unique everyone's circumstances
[91]
are so different so we're going to look
[94]
at some different variables here
[95]
but we're going to start out with some
[96]
very basic ones so first we have john
[98]
and jane
[99]
just a sample case male female both age
[102]
66
[103]
and just retire now we're in texas
[106]
so we put texas as a state residence but
[109]
obviously if you live in a state with an
[110]
income tax a state income tax there
[113]
would be a little bit different scenario
[115]
but that's why the customization is so
[118]
important
[119]
okay so retirement period so we like to
[123]
assume
[123]
a long life expectancy and the reason is
[126]
that the
[127]
age 85 population segment in this
[129]
country is the fastest growing
[131]
population segment out there
[133]
also according to pew research which i
[135]
brought this article up here
[137]
when we look at the projection of growth
[140]
this is
[140]
the estimated number of people over 100
[144]
years old
[145]
over the next 30 years in 1990 there
[148]
were 95 000 people over
[149]
age 100. in 2015 451 thousand
[154]
by 2050 this is a pew research study by
[157]
the way
[158]
3.6 million people estimated to be
[161]
over the age of 100. this is advances in
[165]
science and technology and medicine
[167]
and treatment to help people overcome
[170]
various diseases that they may
[172]
they may find themselves with in
[173]
retirement so
[175]
underestimating life expectancy is a big
[179]
mistake for a retirement planner because
[180]
if we plan for 95 or 90
[183]
and you don't make it that far well you
[185]
have that money you're secure
[187]
but if we plan to 82 and you make it to
[188]
90 well guess what that's a big problem
[191]
so when we talk about life expectancy
[194]
this is one of the pieces of financial
[196]
planning that is specialized to you and
[199]
yourself
[199]
you know your health you know your
[201]
longevity you know what
[203]
health problems you may or may not have
[205]
of course we can customize this
[207]
for your particular situation but most
[210]
people
[210]
from my experience underestimate the
[213]
advances in medicine
[214]
technology and science that will
[216]
continue to extend our lives
[218]
as time progresses we have treatment
[220]
right now for various diseases and
[221]
cancers that
[222]
even five ten years ago we didn't have
[225]
so underestimating our life expectancy
[227]
is one of the big mistakes that people
[228]
make
[229]
now if you do have health conditions if
[231]
you smoke if you drink you're probably
[232]
not making it to 95
[234]
that would be customized for your
[235]
particular situation but
[238]
generally speaking i'd much rather plan
[240]
for you to live to 95 and you don't make
[241]
it there
[242]
then plan for you to live to 85 and then
[244]
you make it to 95
[246]
and then the plan obviously would be
[247]
insufficient because there wouldn't be
[249]
enough money
[250]
to pay for health care to keep up with
[251]
inflation taxes etc
[253]
so that's why we put the life
[256]
expectancies at 95.
[259]
okay this particular couple what we're
[262]
trying to do is account for
[263]
spending and retirement of sixty
[265]
thousand dollars per year of course this
[267]
is after tax
[268]
so if most of your money is inside a
[269]
401k or an ira
[271]
there is a tax problem there to get 60
[273]
000 out we have to pull
[275]
more than that after taxes to be left
[277]
with 60.
[278]
healthcare this is the average medicare
[280]
cost
[281]
for a 66 year old couple in this country
[285]
now it may be a little bit more a little
[287]
bit less for you depending on your
[288]
prescriptions and various out-of-pocket
[290]
costs
[291]
but this 9 400 this is the average
[293]
including medicare premiums
[295]
out of pocket costs for health care
[297]
expenses for a 66 year old couple in
[299]
this country
[307]
okay so social security john has
[311]
he will file his normal application at
[312]
sixty six and a half and receive thirty
[314]
six thousand dollars
[316]
jane will then file spousal benefits in
[318]
this scenario which is
[319]
um a lot of times what we see working
[321]
with clients
[322]
where the husband files social security
[324]
and then the y files for spousal
[326]
benefits of course your situation may be
[328]
different again
[329]
this is where customization comes in but
[333]
36 000 and 18 000 are the social
[335]
security benefits
[337]
now here's something very important when
[338]
we look at the breakdown in assets this
[340]
is where
[341]
retirement planning starts to get very
[345]
very fun for us because it start it's
[347]
putting that puzzle together
[348]
but where it becomes very complicated
[350]
for for most people
[352]
because they don't understand the
[355]
challenges
[355]
that come with having too much money
[357]
inside that 401k
[359]
so we did a breakdown here six hundred
[361]
thousand inside the 401k and 200 000
[363]
inside the brokerage account
[365]
there are literally millions and
[367]
millions of different ways that you
[368]
could take retirement
[370]
income from this breakdown of accounts
[372]
you could take x amount from the 401k
[374]
take x amount from the brokerage account
[376]
brokerage of course when you say this
[378]
this is a non-retirement account a
[380]
non-ira
[381]
optimization comes into play when we we
[384]
are we identify what is the
[386]
appropriate amount to take out of that
[387]
401k and what is the appropriate amount
[389]
to take out of the non-ira
[391]
in order to not just reduce taxes today
[394]
but look at the impact over the course
[396]
of your retirement
[398]
which income distribution strategy makes
[400]
the most sense for not only today but
[402]
over the next 20 to 30 years
[405]
so this is the breakdown here we're
[407]
going to when we look at the tax
[408]
analysis in a few minutes
[410]
it's going to make a lot more sense
[411]
we're going to look at the top 100
[413]
different income distribution possible
[416]
strategies
[416]
and the impact that they have over a
[418]
long period of time
[420]
okay so very simple we're not looking at
[424]
real estate here so a net worth of eight
[426]
hundred thousand dollars
[428]
because yes when you have equity in your
[432]
home
[432]
it's a great thing to have you can pull
[434]
that out for emergencies later
[436]
we just want to isolate the financial
[438]
assets that this couple has saved
[439]
look at them spending sixty thousand
[441]
dollars a year after tax with inflation
[444]
uh inflation by the way we have it two
[446]
and a quarter percent i'll touch on that
[448]
in a little bit because we received some
[449]
comments about
[450]
inflation and health care costs now
[452]
health care obviously is increasing a
[454]
lot more
[454]
than general inflation in the economy
[456]
but we just want to isolate with these
[458]
financial assets is that enough to
[460]
answer the big questions
[461]
can i retire stay retired and maintain
[464]
my standard of living
[466]
so when we
[472]
look over here at
[476]
a monte carlo analysis so this button
[478]
what we're going to do is we're going to
[479]
hit it it's going to run a thousand
[480]
different simulations looking at a
[482]
thousand different
[483]
market returns over the course of time
[486]
we just have them in a basic 60 40
[488]
portfolio again
[490]
asset allocation is a big part of a
[492]
successful retirement but we're just
[493]
trying to
[494]
to provide information based on what the
[496]
majority of people out there
[498]
are currently doing with retirement
[503]
okay so this comes in at about 87
[505]
percent
[506]
so 87 percent you may be saying well is
[509]
that a good number is that a bad number
[510]
the truth is it doesn't really matter
[512]
too much it's just a snapshot in time
[515]
what's most important with a financial
[517]
plan and a retirement plan
[518]
is that you stay connected to this over
[520]
time when markets are up or down and you
[523]
have various returns over time
[525]
and you're spending money as well you
[527]
run into what's called
[528]
sequence of returns risk which is the
[530]
combination of taking money out
[532]
and market losses if you take out five
[535]
percent you lose
[536]
20 you're down 25 percent in a single
[538]
year
[539]
now if that happens in consecutive years
[542]
that's where the sequence of returns
[543]
risk comes in when you're in the
[545]
distribution phase of retirement
[547]
so yes 87 percent i would feel
[549]
comfortable myself retiring
[551]
if this came in at 87 percent for me
[553]
because that means 870 out of a
[555]
thousand simulations i die with money
[559]
now it's more nuanced than that of
[560]
course but what's most important
[563]
is that we're tracking this over time is
[565]
it staying at 87 percent
[567]
is it going up is it going down that's
[570]
what's really important this is nothing
[571]
more than a snapshot in time
[573]
now when we start to look at before we
[575]
get to the tax analysis
[578]
i want to come over here to what's
[579]
called the play zone in this particular
[581]
software that we use
[583]
and i like this because it shows what
[585]
happens if we spend a little bit more
[586]
money
[586]
or less money how does that impact our
[589]
probability
[590]
of success so right now we have this
[593]
couple spending sixty thousand dollars
[595]
after taxes let's say they wanted to
[597]
spend seventy thousand though
[600]
seventy one look at the impact that this
[603]
has it drops it from 87 to 41
[606]
that is a massive change in probability
[609]
of success
[610]
now what we would do in this situation
[612]
if somebody wanted to spend 70
[614]
000 of course we can customize a plan
[617]
where
[618]
seventy thousand is spent maybe in the
[620]
first five years seven years ten years
[622]
with the intention of eventually
[623]
tapering it back down to an
[625]
inflation adjusted sixty thousand per
[627]
year so inflation adjusted sixty
[629]
thousand per year what does that mean
[631]
well 60 000 today if you take that out
[633]
of your portfolio
[635]
it will buy more goods and services than
[637]
if you take 60 000 out of your portfolio
[639]
in the future
[640]
this is a basic time value of money
[642]
concept inflation
[644]
erodes our purchasing power over time so
[647]
to have the same purchasing power
[648]
in the future of 60 000 today we
[651]
probably need to pull out 68 69 70 71
[654]
000
[655]
something in that range
[658]
we'll actually look at this in a second
[660]
but the 70 000 this assumes we spend 70
[663]
000 today after taxes and it's just
[664]
inflating at two and a quarter percent
[666]
over time now i said i would talk a
[668]
little bit about inflation and right now
[670]
what's going on as i record this video
[672]
is we are going through a period of a
[673]
bit higher inflation in some areas
[675]
other areas we absolutely don't have any
[678]
serious inflation
[679]
the truth of the matter is whatever you
[681]
believe inflation to be
[682]
when we customize a plan like this for
[684]
you we can look at various amounts of
[686]
inflation but if you start to put it out
[688]
at four five six seven percent
[690]
it's very likely you're not going to
[692]
have enough money to keep up with that
[693]
level of inflation
[695]
unless the investment returns are that
[698]
or greater
[699]
now positive news there is typically in
[701]
high periods of inflation
[702]
stocks have performed well but when we
[705]
look at
[706]
inflation inputs and inflation estimates
[709]
it's been 12 plus years where general
[711]
inflation in the economy has been under
[713]
2
[714]
we are starting to see some inflation
[715]
now most experts believe that it's
[718]
transitory
[719]
and by the time we get to next year
[721]
inflation should normalize but we'll see
[723]
most importantly again what we do is we
[725]
stay connected if inflation does start
[727]
to
[727]
to sustain itself in a way that gets
[730]
above two and a half three three and a
[731]
half four percent
[732]
well that's why we have a financial plan
[734]
we start to adjust for those
[736]
changes same thing with taxes same thing
[739]
with markets same thing with everything
[740]
in retirement our health
[742]
our goals and in the circumstances we
[744]
find ourselves in they change throughout
[746]
retirement
[747]
that's why when we look at something
[748]
like this it's just a snapshot in time
[751]
we need to be able
[752]
to be flexible and pivot based on
[754]
whatever circumstances come our way
[757]
okay so taxes i want to look at taxes
[759]
now
[760]
we have this this is a different
[764]
software that we use to look at taxes
[766]
we'll overlay this software and the
[768]
outputs from this one to the other
[769]
software
[770]
along with a few other ones that we use
[772]
then of course the human element is the
[773]
most important
[774]
when combining all of this together but
[777]
what we're looking at here is the top
[779]
100 distribution strategies for this
[781]
same couple
[783]
number one tax planning and income
[785]
distribution scenarios
[787]
the number one ranked strategy of course
[790]
is up top
[791]
it shows an estimated ending balance of
[793]
663 000
[795]
and taxes paid over the course of
[797]
retirement of 42
[799]
sixty so ending balance of six sixty
[802]
taxes paid of about forty two thousand
[804]
if we come down here to the very lowest
[807]
ranked strategy so i went to number
[809]
eleven it's
[810]
number 101 ranked cumulative taxes 156
[814]
000 with an ending balance of 170.
[817]
so that's over a 500 000
[820]
or so change in an estimated ending
[823]
balance
[824]
and a hundred thousand plus in
[825]
additional taxes paid
[827]
what's cool about this software is it
[830]
isolates everything else except your
[832]
distribution strategy
[833]
how much are you taking from the ira how
[835]
much are you taking from the non-ira
[837]
are you doing any roth conversions so
[839]
being able to isolate everything else
[841]
and just looking at those variables
[844]
shows us very clearly
[846]
that the tax planning and income
[848]
planning component for this couple
[850]
in this scenario john and jane is
[852]
extremely important it's the difference
[854]
isolating everything else between
[856]
finishing with about a hundred and
[857]
seventy thousand estimated
[859]
or six hundred and sixty thousand so as
[861]
you can see
[862]
income planning tax planning play a very
[864]
critical part
[865]
in the overall retirement plan this
[868]
software that we looked at over here
[870]
this one is assuming what we call a
[872]
conventional wisdom
[873]
distribution strategy now this software
[877]
is that's the software's weakness
[878]
this does not do a great job tax
[880]
planning but when we overlay
[881]
the tax planning software with the
[884]
financial planning software here
[886]
when we get the 87 percent and we get it
[888]
all done this gets it up to 90 95
[890]
96 99 a lot of times the big takeaway
[893]
here
[894]
is that retirement is not just about
[895]
your investments it's about having a
[897]
plan
[898]
that looks at your investments and
[899]
manages risk but also generating
[901]
income tax planning and health care
[904]
planning
[905]
along with estate planning estate
[906]
planning is very important if it matters
[908]
to you what happens to your assets when
[910]
you're gone
[910]
so we always keep a link in the
[911]
description if you want to reach out to
[913]
us set a consultation have a phone call
[915]
and see if this type of planning is
[917]
appropriate for you
[918]
it may not be appropriate for you you
[920]
may not be a good fit for what we do and
[921]
that's okay
[922]
hopefully we still can provide value and
[924]
help you become a great
[926]

[927]
retirement but if you do want to talk to
