Know Your Client We ask our clients what they want, and marry that to what they NEED We believe that it is ESSENTIAL that clients identify and plan for their future as there are some very clear threats to their plans that must be understood and navigated3 5. What are YOUR Goals?

Goals Paying For It Average US couple will need $1 million for retirement Assuming a conservative 4-5% annual draw-down (preinflation, emergencies)Investing in a tax-free muni bond portfolio, drawing down $40,000 annually There is a 72% chance nest egg will be exhausted before you die 6 8. The Problems Big Picture Fertility rates are slowing, longevity is increasing Between 2013 and 2050 the number of people globally 65 and older will TRIPLE to 1.5 billion, one-sixth of the worlds populationInspite of people living longer, average retirement age throughout the 20th Century remained static at 64 Apart from (adverse) demographics, there are high levels of debt in developed economies, slowing rates of growth in emerging markets 7 9.

No Longer Fit For Purpose David Lloyd George (Chancellor of the Exchequer, 1908-15)He was the driver for a well intentioned social experiment which many of us are paying for today state funded pensions.

Work Hard The US government estimates that middle-income parents of infants born today will spend $242,000 to raise their child to the age of 18but this excludes college fees, which can be up to an additional $520,000before university fees are added, a further $100,000-260,000 = up to $1 million per child11 13. Adding Up The Cost RetirementChildrenExtra$1 million Pension$242,000 Living Expenses$150,000 - Holidays$220,000 Medical Expenses$520,000 + $260,000 College + University$1.37 million$1.02 million$150,000= $2.54 million 12 14.
