Many of us have a favorite type of food and even a favorite meal. For instance, if I could only eat one type of food for the rest of my life I’d probably choose Italian. Everyone approaches food differently… Some people are adventurous and like to try new and exotic dishes instead of ordering the same thing. Other people like to keep it simple and stick to very basic foods. Whenever I see my favorite dishes on a menu I order them almost every time.
Regardless of our food preference we all share something in common, we want to enjoy our meal. And the biggest factor in determining your overall satisfaction with a meal will most likely be your expectations. Are you expecting this to be the very best representation of your favorite dish, or do you lower your expectations to ensure you’ll get the most enjoyment?
So, there it is. Whether you are planning for retirement or eating out, your expectations will play a major role in your overall satisfaction. It’s why we spend a lot of time getting to know our prospective clients. Before we do anything else, we want to know what’s important to them and understand the goals they have for retirement. Because we know that creating a plan without having that crucial information will have a higher likelihood of ending up with someone feeling dissatisfied.
One way to make sure you’ll be happy with your retirement plan is to set up a complimentary financial review so we can discuss your expectations. This meeting is about you and discussing the things that are important to you. Our goal is to help you achieve your retirement goals without taking on unnecessary risk.

Remember, with clearly set expectations, you’ll get the most enjoyment out of retirement and your favorite meal.
