goals, be prepared for life in retirement to cost more than you might think. In particular, be cognizant that many people overestimate how much money they’ll save by “downsizing” their homes. While they may save on property taxes and utilities, they may encounter new costs related to their new, smaller living arrangements, such as homeowner association and facility fees.

Five Myths About Retirement That Can Lead You Astray Whether you are decades away from retirement or it’s right around the corner, it’s important to separate fact from fiction when it comes to planning for your postwork life. Here are five common – and often costly – myths that often mislead people about life in retirement. Keeping them in mind can help you avoid missteps and achieve your goals for a happy and satisfying retirement.

Myth #1 – Retirement life will be less expensive Retirement often frees up more time to pursue other interests and hobbies. This may include more travel, social activities and other pursuits that require a financial commitment.

care as a major expense in retirement.

Myth #3 – Social Security will take care of my financial needs in retirement According to the Social Security Administration, more than one-third of Americans rely on Social Security for more than half of their income in retirement. That said, it’s important to be realistic. The average Social Security benefit for retired workers in Myth #2 – Health inJanuary 2023 is $1,827 surance is simple – per month.

funds and CDs are taxable. You may even need to make quarterly estimated tax payments on your investment income and retirement plan distributions.

Myth #5 – Retirement will mean it’s time to kick back and relax Given the longer life expectancies many Americans enjoy today, the reality is that leaving your position with a company or ending a career doesn’t necessarily mean you are done with work. Many people have the desire to remain active. This can take the form of consulting, using the talents and experience you have to continue to earn money. It also might mean spending significant time volunteering for organizations you support. In short, retirement doesn’t mean setting your talents, abilities and energy aside. For many, it’s the start of a new chapter in life.

Planning helps you stay reality-based As you structure your retirement plan, it makes sense to put

some thought into what life will look like, and how that might impact your living costs. A good plan will help you set these myths aside and deal with the real world of retirement.
