Set yourself up for the long term, start a retirement plan 

In an era where there are questions about the future of social security, and people are living longer, retirement plans are becoming more important as each year passes. Despite this, polls have suggested that approximately 40% of Americans are not investing in a retirement plan. Kurt Philion is a Wealth Advisor with Frandsen Investment Services, and he recommends that you set yourself up for retirement as early as possible, and view your retirement plan as a living expense. 

Philion says it’s especially important to start as soon as possible if the company you work for offers retirement matching as a benefit. 

If you’re one of the 40 percent of people who aren’t saving for retirement, Philion says it’s never too late to start saving, and he encourages you to take that first step. 

For more information on starting a retirement plan, schedule a consultation with your local or workplace financial planner or advisor. You can also talk to Kurt by calling 218-230-2822 or 218-415-7139.
