After decades of earning a regular paycheck, retirement requires a new approach to creating reliable monthly income. This practical, one-evening workshop is designed for adults who are approaching retirement or have recently retired and want greater confidence in their financial future.

Participants will learn how to:

• Estimate retirement income needs and identify potential income gaps.
• Maximize Social Security benefits through informed claiming strategies.
• Develop a sustainable spending plan for retirement.
• Understand how taxes affect retirement income.
• Create an investment strategy designed to generate reliable income.
• Avoid common financial and behavioral mistakes that can impact long-term retirement security.

Throughout the session, participants will complete a personalized retirement income worksheet using their own financial information, leaving with a clearer understanding of their retirement income outlook and a practical action plan for the future. No financial background is required.

Who Should Attend: Adults nearing retirement, newly retired individuals, and couples planning for retirement together. Spouses and partners are encouraged to attend. Participants are encouraged to bring their Social Security statement and an estimate of their retirement account balances, although approximate figures are sufficient.
