1 25 TheCircleofSafety WhenwemeetwithretireesandpeopleplanningforretirementwediscusswhatwecalltheCircleof Safety(Figure 25-1). In seminars and workshops, the topic has always stirred interest. We have come totheconclusionthatpeopleareinterestedinthecircleofsafetyaftertheylearnwhattheconcept entails but that they actually initially have a gut reaction to the name phrase. Doesn t the phrase the CircleofSafety justsoundgood?doesn titjustfeelright?doesn titjustfeel safe?wefindthat when people hear the phrase the Circle of Safety having no idea whatsoever what it actually means; itjustsoundsgoodtothem. Figure 25-1 Wethoughtaboutitandcameupwithsomementalimagesrepresentingbothsafetyandrisk,and then described them to people. We asked retirees and soon-to-be retirees(stbrs), even though they didn tknowwhatthecircleofsafetywasallaboutyet,iftheywouldratherstandinsidethecircleof SafetyoroutsidetheCircleofSafety.Guesswhat100%alwayssay?Theyliketheideaofstanding insidethecircleofsafety;itmakesthemfeelsafer,moreprotected.wethinkthisisakeytothe financial psychology of these retirees and STBRs. 156
2 Ask yourself, would you rather stand inside the Circle of Safety or outside? You are probably inside as shown in Figure 25-2! Figure 25-2 InsidetheCircleofSafety,youaresafe;outsidetheCircleofSafety,youarenot(Figure25-3). Figure
3 IfyouareoutsidetheCircleofSafety,yourexperiencemightverywellfeel likebeinginthepitof doom as depicted in Figure Figure 25-4 As humans, we are hardwired to protect ourselves, our loved ones, and our stuff. Survival is dependent on this. Too much risk in our lives in any category, while potentially exciting and bloodpumping, can substantially decrease our ability to create security. Think about it: If you drive too fast in yourcar,youmaygetintoanaccident.goingfastisfun,butyoumightnotmakeittoyourultimate destination. defines Volatilityas theamountofuncertaintyorriskaboutthesizeofchangesinasecurity'svalue.a higher volatility means that a security's value can potentially be spread out over a larger rangeofvalues.thismeansthatthepriceofthesecuritycanchangedramaticallyovera short time period in either direction.

Figure25-5showsthetypesofassetswithprincipalvolatilitythatwehaveseenretireesown.Itis pretty safe to say that most people, definitely most retirees, do not like principal volatility. There are alwaysafewmoredaringindividualswhohaveiceintheirveinsandstrongstomachsthatseem oblivioustotheupsanddownsofthevaluesoftheirassets,butthesedays,suchpeoplearefewand far between. Figure
5 We have been asked many times why retirees and STBRs accept principal volatility in their portfolios. Wethinkthereareafewgoodanswersforthis. 1. Advisors recommend assets that have principal volatility. The financial services industry is reported to be the largest industry in the world. A large percentage of the financial service products sold to the public have principal volatility. 2. Retirees and STBRs follow the old adage that risk equals return, and people want returns. The conceptisthatthehigherriskyoutake,whichalsomeansthehigheramountofprincipal volatility you endure, the higher potential for return you receive. This doesn t mean you will receivethehighestrateofreturnifyoutakethemostrisk,asthereareanextremenumberof variables that determine your ultimate rate of return; it simply means that you have the potentialtoreceivethehighestrateofreturnforthemostrisk. 3. Retirees, STBRs, and advisors are stuck in asset-accumulation mode, which typically includes investing for growth, with the inherent principal volatility. 4. Retirees and STBRs, and the advisors servicing them, have not switched over to retirement income-distribution mode, which requires minimum Principal Volatility for maximum guaranteed lifetime income success. 5. Retirees and STBRs think that accepting principal volatility is what they have to do, that they have no other choice; they just don t know their options. Although we understand all of these reasons, we don t agree with any of them. We strongly believe that RetireesandSTBRsshouldnotacceptprincipalvolatilityintheassetstheyplantouseto generate maximum guaranteed lifetime income.
