08

Losing Your Partner

Of all the changes a person will go through in their life, the death of a partner is usually the most difficult.

09

Aging and Your Finances

Thanks to modern medicine, more and more of us can achieve a very long life, but your later years could become really challenging if medical expenses start eating away at your retirement savings.

Forced Retirement or Unexpected Layoff?

Retirement is what most of us are working toward. Forced retirement or a layoff…not so much. Great Life Investing can help you create a retirement or short-term cash flow plan that considers your unique circumstances and eases you into the transition. Do you need a new source of income? Can you maximize what you currently have? Our expertise will empower you to maximize your cash flow, even if it ends abruptly.

Health and Your Finances

Did you know the cost of health care is the biggest bankrupter of our seniors? Your health is the bedrock of your lifestyle. While planning for your future, Great Life Investing can help create a financial plan that keeps health expenses in mind with every decision you make. Our experience working with people with unexpected health issues can help you navigate the complex healthcare system and access resources. 

Losing a Loved One

There is a reason losing a loved one is considered the most stressful life transition. In addition to dealing with emotional trauma, many financial decisions need to be made and made in a timely manner. The burden people encounter paying for the care of a loved one will drain your savings. Great Life Investing can help you navigate this difficult time by providing emotional support and expert guidance as you make critical financial decisions. 

Significant Life Transitions

Life is full of transitions. You can’t control upcoming transitions, but you can choose an excellent financial partner to help you make great decisions through everyone one of them. Each transition comes with unique challenges and opportunities. It’s essential to have a plan in place that considers your goals and aspirations. Great Life Investing can help you navigate these transitions, providing guidance and support as you make crucial decisions.

Complex Tax Situations

Here is a strange problem; no one wants a challenging tax problem, but everyone wants to make enough money to have a complex tax problem. That is where Great Life Investing comes to the rescue. Tax laws are intricate and require forethought and strategic planning to execute beneficially. Knowing when and how to make withdrawals will change your tax burden. We help minimize liabilities, and your mistakes are eliminated. Great Life Investing has years of experience assisting people to understand and stay safe from future tax problems.

Caring for an Aging Loved One

Of all the shared life experiences, caring for a loved one as they age is the hardest. The combination of financial pressure and the sadness of watching them slow down is uniquely devastating. This is another place where Great Life Investing can help. We can help create a monthly budget, a yearly financial plan, and a financial retirement plan to cover long-term care costs. Having the right help means you won’t have to carry this burden alone. Great Life Investing has years of experience walking people through one of the most challenging assignments that life hands out.

Late Career to Retirement

Retirement planning is like hitting a target that moves side to side as well as front to back! Inflation, market fluctuations, family changes, and health changes are just some of the issues that impact the plan daily! Having Great Life Investing on your team will ensure that every step of the way, your plan is getting stronger. We plan for life changes along the way when we create your plan. During the later years of your career, we can ensure that you are still on target. Plus, it helps to have someone keep you accountable.

Women in Transition

From caregiving, career minding to coordinating the field trip, women wear a lot of hats. When a divorce happens a woman takes on even more responsibility. Divorce is an emotional and often a financial drain for most enduring this difficult process. We have worked with so many clients that, had they planned differently, could possibly have saved themselves from a huge financial loss. Emotions run high and it can be easy to be impulsive or unwise around finances, especially when we’re stressed.
