In his Disrupt Magazine article, Brian Korienek laid out five steps to creating a secure retirement plan. According to Mr. Korienek, step one is to find the right advisor. He goes on to explain what the right advisor looks like: "This person should be someone who you trust and can talk to about your money. A good advisor will help you come up with the best plan for your retirement, like helping you decide how much money to save and how to invest it. They should also understand the laws that protect your investments, so they can help make sure your money is safe. Finding an experienced advisor with proper licensure that works with a company that follows strict rules can also give you peace of mind."

The next step that Brian Korienek outlines is to set a retirement goal: "This will help you determine how much money you need for your desired lifestyle, and when you want to retire by. You should also consider whether you would be able to continue working part-time or if taking Social Security benefits at age 62 would make more sense. If needed, work with your advisor to come up with the most beneficial goal and timeline tailored specifically for you."

Steps three and four in developing a secure retirement plan as delineated by Mr. Korienek are to assess all sources of income available in retirement and to review all accounts that will be used in retirement. Brian Korienek explains: "These might include Social Security, pensions, annuities, and investments. Your advisor can help you determine the best option for your given situation, so work with them to make an informed decision for your retirement plan. Your advisor can help you decide which accounts are most beneficial for you, and how you should position them to maximize their value for your retirement portfolio."

The final step in creating a secure retirement plan is to review your plan and make adjustments. For anyone wanting to plan for a secure and fulfilling retirement, they should start by finding the right advisor. Next, create a retirement goal, assess all sources of income available at retirement, go through a thorough review of all accounts that will be used in retirement, and lastly, review the plan created and make any necessary adjustments.
