Determining if you are ready for retirement
Very often, life doesn’t play out like we planned it. Your master plan may have been to be totally debt free, retire at age 62 and use some of your savings to travel the world. But let’s face it, life can throw us some curve balls and 2020 threw one at the entire world.
Maybe you’re 55 years old, still have a mortgage, a child in college and haven’t reached your retirement savings target. If the opportunity to take early retirement arises, you might not be sure if the timing is right. So what are your best steps forward?

“When buying a new car recently, the branch manager told me of the various ways to shop for the best deal. I got pre-approved, found the perfect dream car and it was delivered to my local branch in three days flat. All paperwork was ready, and it was the easiest transaction of my life.”
