Good reminders and great list of 7 things to have ready. I would add a couple more but the biggest is know what you will do with your time. I have a 7 ready to go but need a better plan for my daily routine. I may even go back to work part time until I have a better plan for my time.

Most of these are good practices but I will still keep my mortgage since I have a low interest rate and prefer keeping my money working for me in investments. Getting the two grown kids on solid financial footing and independent from my wife and I are something that’s still challenging.

Not all debt is bad. We purchased our house with cash years ago, and we pay in full for all credit cards. However, we do have one debt that we are paying off DW’s phone on a 2 year plan. If you just buy the phone, it was about $1600. However,if you sign up for two year contract, it is about $1100, zero interest over 24 months. We need the phone and the plan anyway. So we will have debt.

Would depend on your mortgage rate - but TFSA probably the better decision for entering retirement

@DoneByD 3 ай бұрын

You can't make a plan by choosing between two items like you mentioned above. All the pieces have to fit together so no one could answer this question without having much more information. You should be talking with a financial advisor about how the two items above mesh into your overall retirement plan (cash flow needs, savings/pensions to meet cash flow needs, total ongoing expenses in retirement etc).

Retired at 54 with a DB Pension No mortgage for 9 years now. RRSPs and TFSA look ok I only use my credit cards for Amazon or on-line purchases and pay it off in advance of even getting the due date ( credit score of 843) Nothing on my PLC or HLOC. Taking CPP at 63 because of my drop off years. CPP is slightly more than my than the loss of my pension bridge. Slow burn of RRSP so i don't get into the next tax bracket . And ge.t significant OAS clawback.

@DoneByD 3 ай бұрын

Sounds like you like where you are and that is good. I'll add a perspective, I see nothing wrong with using a credit card for monthly purchases, in fact when you are good with money management to me it makes more sense to use credit card for every day purchases which carry whatever awards systems are important to you so you get the awards without having to pay extra. IE still pay off credit card monthly - we've done that and have paid for flights to Florida, Hawaii, Mazatlan, & Vegas to a name a few with the rewards. Also if you don't use credit your score will decrease over time so still important to use credit on occasion. For instance if purchasing a new vehicle I will always do the analysis on taking the discounted loan rate, or allowance for cash sale versus leaving money in open or TFSA investments depending upon ROI. For years it has always made more sense to take the discounted loan rate and leave money invested (loan rate fixed 1.99% versus getting 6-8% ROI). If you ever have to you could withdraw the money to make the load payment or pay off the loan entirely by cashing in. But everyone really should do what they feel comfortable doing, since retirement financial planning is all about personal choices.

You know I've watched your channel for a few years now and I agree with a lot of what you have to say. I just retired at age 62. I still have a mortgage and I'm fine if I waited to pay off my mortgage before I retired. I'd be in my mid-70s..... So on your list I'm 6 for 7. I think the mortgage one is a little ridiculous taking into account that many people are divorced or other circumstances.

@tivertontom 3 ай бұрын

counterpoint on the mortgage: 'good' vs BAD debt. ... it is a 'good debt' and if it is locked in at a very low rate (%) ... and you have other debts (vehicles and 'toys', helping kids, vacations etc) ... it is the cheapest loan, already 'guaranteed' with a bank) Might also help you from having to cash out investments at bad timing.

@ddavidson5 3 ай бұрын

What you say isn't wrong but I'd say in retirement there isn't really any 'good debt' -- it's more like bad debt versus less bad debt. Before retirement getting as debt free as you can, zero debt if possible, is still good advice.

Mortgage? Nah, I want to retire before I am 78. Sounds like that won't be the book for me. Maybe you can do a video on what to do if these seven steps cannot be achieved?

@DoneByD 3 ай бұрын

Book would still be a good read as lots of stuff in there to think about and suggestions re: around what the numbers are suggesting is better. If you are carrying a mortgage into retirement you just have to ensure you are adding in the cash flow needed to pay for it, also need higher savings going into retirement obviously to cover that cash flow need, and then lastly have some sort of insurance (or plan) in the event you die before the mortgage is paid off so you don't burden your survivor, if you have one. It's not the total end of the world however it does make your retirement income needs significantly higher and therefore your savings target considerably higher as well. Fred states the book is centered around "the idea that your main objectives are to maximize your retirement income and to ensure it lasts a lifetime." He goes on to say "This book is for people who are close to retirement, or who are already retired, and who are going to rely heavily on their own savings to meet their retirement income needs. It is assumed that your primary goal is to maximize your retirement income rather than maximizing the assets you leave behind if you die early."
