4 Introduction What is Financial Planning? Financial planning can be a life-long process that assists you and your family in taking control of your financial future. By setting financial goals, developing and implementing financial strategies, and monitoring progress on a regular basis, the likelihood of achieving your results is greatly increased. There are usually five steps in the preparation of a professional financial plan: 1. An Opening Interview to assess your current financial situation and to identify your priorities and concerns. 2. Gathering information to develop a Profile of your current situation, including a review of your financial information and relevant documents. We will analyze this data to be certain we understand your unique situation and how to address it. 3. Presenting the planning analysis during a strategy session allowing you to understand where you are in relation to where you want to be in the future. 4. Using the plan as a blueprint, develop an Implementation schedule and identify specific products and services to help you reach your goals. 5. The last step in the process is the Periodic Review of your financial situation. At a minimum, we recommend you assess the need for any changes annually. Even the best financial plan must be monitored on a regular basis to make sure you are continuing in the right direction. Why develop a financial plan? Most people find that managing their finances is a challenge. We face many opportunities, obstacles, and hazards along the way. We struggle with anxiety relating to our personal financial circumstances. Further, many families are too busy dealing with the challenges of day-to-day life to think about next month; let alone retirement, which may be twenty years or more into the future. By developing a financial plan, you and your family: Will have a better understanding of your current financial situation. Determine attainable retirement, education, insurance, and other financial goals. Review goals, funding strategies, and alternatives where goals have to be compromised. Have the necessary financial resources set aside to fund your goals as they occur. Reduce the effect of unexpected events, such as disability, premature death, etc. Page 4 of 138

8 Net Worth Overview Your current financial position is a key factor in your analysis. You need to know where you are today before you can begin your financial journey to where you would like to be. Your net worth statement is a listing of all the assets you currently own: your house, cars, bank accounts, investments, cash value of your life insurance policies, other personal property, and your liabilities. Typical liabilities are your mortgage, credit cards, and other debts. Your net worth is represented by the difference between these two values. In theory, if you sold all your assets and paid off all your liabilities, your net worth is the amount you would have left over before taxes. A net worth statement is important because it helps check progress towards financial goals, plan for changes in assets or liabilities, estimate how well dependent survivors would be able to live on their current inheritance, give an estimate of retirement income potential, and provide a way to chart financial progress over the years. Your net worth statement is an essential financial tool. You should update it at least yearly and whenever there is a major change in your assets and/or liabilities. When you know your net worth, you can set realistic financial goals. Page 8 of 138

18 Cash Flow Overview Cash flow management takes into account all sources of income and expenses. The following diagram represents the many items that can have an effect on a household s cash flow. Lifestyle Assets Taxes Debt Business Assets Cash Expenses Investment Assets Retirement Assets Employment Income Assets are a use of cash when they are purchased and a source of cash when they are sold. Investment assets that produce income can provide a source of cash throughout their life. A liability is a source of cash when it is incurred and a use of cash as it is paid off. Employment income is a source of cash. Expenses and taxes are a use of cash. In short, cash inflows come from income, debt, and the sale of assets. Cash outflows pay expenses, reduce debt, and purchase assets. Page 18 of 138

19 Cash Flow Summary - Current The cash flow report below outlines your current sources of income and expenses. Your income includes employment income, investment income and any other sources.

56 Retirement Overview Retirement planning is an integral part of your overall analysis. Strategies should be designed to suit your goals and comfort level as well as to take advantage of tax saving opportunities. For any plan to be effective, it is necessary to implement these strategies and to review your goals and progress periodically. The amount you will need in retirement depends on the age you plan to retire, your desired retirement lifestyle, how long you expect to live and the rate of return you expect to earn on your investments. Social Security and employer-sponsored pension plans will probably provide a smaller percentage of what you will need than they did for your parents. The most important aspect of calculating your future needs is estimating how much you will have to save each year to produce the income you need to maintain your standard of living after you stop working. Pre-Retirement Considerations Consider using one or more of the following strategies to maximize your retirement income: Invest to potentially earn a higher rate of return on investments While there are no guarantees that a higher rate of return can be achieved by an investment style, if you have a lengthy time horizon until retirement, assets that have the potential for significant growth over the long term should be considered. It is important that your investment choices be consistent with the level of risk that you are willing to assume. In addition, a good analysis must always take inflation into account. If you disregard inflation, you may end up investing too conservatively. Together we can determine a suitable mix of investments that meets your objectives, time frame and risk tolerance. Save more It is hard to motivate yourself to save for retirement because it generally requires spending less money now. You will have a much better chance of achieving your retirement goal if you maintain (or even reduce) today's standard of living and save as much as you can. Retirement planners generally suggest committing 10% to 15% of your gross earnings, or earnings before tax, to savings for retirement. Spend less during retirement Many retirement experts estimate that you need between 70% and 80% of your pre-retirement income to maintain your standard of living during retirement. This may or may not be appropriate for you, as everyone s goals are different. Some of your expenses will increase and others will decrease. For instance, you may spend less on business clothing and lunches, but more on vacations. Also, consider the differences in your living expenses for early and later phases of retirement. For example, you ll likely spend more on travel when you re 65 than when you are 85. Retire at a later age The effect of retiring later is two-fold. Not only will you have contributed to your retirement plan for more years but also your salary is also typically higher at the end of your career. Retiring early means losing retirement plan contributions based on those later, higher income amounts. This normally results in a smaller pension. Another effect of retiring early is being retired longer, and being dependent on your investments for a greater number of years. Page 56 of 138

57 Maximize Contributions to Qualified Retirement Plans Many retirement accounts have a dual advantage; contributions are deducted from current taxable income, and the account itself grows tax deferred. Sources of Income in Retirement The following assumptions are made when determining the source of your retirement income. Generally, your retirement income begins drawing from the first item on the list, and if that particular source is insufficient, it will draw from the next item on the list, and so on: Social Security and defined benefit pension income are paid out based on the assumptions made in your retirement plan. Your employer-defined benefit pension benefits are based on your pension formula and years of service. Investment earnings on non-qualified investments. Non-qualified assets that do not have a growth component, such as T-Bills and CDs. These assets are redeemed in the order of lowest return rate to highest. Non-qualified assets with a growth component, such as stocks and most mutual funds. These assets are redeemed starting with those with the least percentage growth to the greatest percentage growth. Non-qualified deferred annuities. Qualified assets, such as IRAs and 401(k)s from lowest return rate to the highest return rate. If your income need is low during retirement, this analysis will enforce the required minimum distributions from these assets. Page 57 of 138

64 Consider the following: Assess options for increasing your retirement savings. If you cannot meet your savings needs, consider changing your retirement age or reducing your desired income goal. Consider the ongoing impact of your defined benefit plan on your purchasing power in retirement. Review your retirement plan and/or retirement account contributions and maximize to the extent possible. Re-evaluate your situation periodically since retirement calculations are subject to change.

85 Asset Allocation Page 85 of 138

86 Asset Allocation Overview What is Asset Allocation? Asset allocation is the process of aligning your risk tolerances, financial objectives, and investment time horizon to your investment portfolio. Selecting different asset types (commonly known as asset classes) may reduce the risk of your overall investment portfolio. The three most common asset types (classes) are as follows: Cash or short-term investments (savings accounts, money market accounts, etc.) Fixed Income investments (CDs, bonds, etc.) Equities (domestic and foreign stock, etc.) Each of these three asset classes can be further subdivided. For example, equities may be broken down by size (small, medium or large capitalized companies), different sectors of the economy (technology, financial services, etc.) or be divided geographically (US, Europe, Asia, etc.). The decision of how to allocate your investments depends on a number of factors including your investment objectives, time horizon, attitudes toward acceptable risk, desired return and tax bracket. The basic premise of asset allocation is that by diversifying your investments over a number of different assets and asset classes, you can help reduce the risk of the entire portfolio while maintaining your desired long-term return rate expectations. Over the long term, an appropriate asset allocation (what to buy) is more important than when to buy. Generally, a decline in one asset class can be offset by an increase in another. Your choice of individual investments can also help reduce the risk of your portfolio. For example, if you diversify within each asset class and choose a number of stocks across different industries, your technology stock may be declining while your financial services stock may be rising. This strategy can also help reduce overall portfolio risk as opposed to investing all of your stocks in a single company or sector of the economy. Studies have shown selection of a portfolio's asset allocation can be responsible for over 90% of a portfolio's performance with the remaining portion comprised of market timing, security selection, and other factors.

87 Higher risk and higher potential return? Your overall comfort level with risk should be a major factor in choosing appropriate investments. It is important to consider that generally, achieving a higher rate of return requires accepting a higher level of risk. Higher risk investments are generally appropriate for clients with more aggressive risk profiles and longer investment time horizons. If your financial objective is many years away (retirement, for example) your investments may withstand the ups and downs of the market. If your goal is only a few years away (such as the purchase of a new car), your investment may decline during the period you wish to redeem the investments. Generally, as your financial goal approaches, you should reduce the risk of your investments by reallocating to a less aggressive asset mix. Why should you consider inflation? When planning for an accumulation goal, (retirement, education, or a major purchase) consider the effect of inflation on the eventual cost of the item. If inflation is not considered, savings may fall short of your goal. For example, an item that costs $1,000 today will cost $1,344 in 10 years, assuming a 3% inflation rate. The graph below shows actual inflation rates for the past 97 years and the average annual rate of inflation from 1914 to 2010 is 3.23%. 25% 20% 15% 10% 5% 0% -5% -10% -15% Inflation Annualized Inflation (to date) Inflation History data obtained from the U.S. Department of Labor. Inflation rates are based on the Consumer Price Index. Page 87 of 138

88 Risk Tolerance Analysis Risk Tolerance Analysis results: Portfolio Investment Profile Time Horizon Unlinked Assets Moderate Very Long Retirement Moderate Very Long Emergency Fund Moderate Very Long Tasha's Education Goal Moderate Very Long Fifth-Wheel Trailer Moderate Long James' Education Goal Moderate Long Different investors have different risk tolerances. Much of the difference stems from time horizon. That is, someone with a short investment time horizon is less able to withstand losses. The remainder of the difference is attributable to the individual s appetite for risk. Volatility can be nerve-wracking for many people and they are more comfortable when they can avoid it. However, there is a definite relationship between risk and return. Investors need to recognize this risk/return trade-off. The following risk tolerance questionnaire has been designed to measure an individual s ability (time horizon) and willingness (risk tolerance) to accept uncertainties in their investment s performance. The total score recommends which of the five risk profiles is most appropriate for the investor. 1. When do you expect to begin withdrawing money from your investment account? Portfolio Unlinked Assets Retirement Emergency Fund Tasha's Education Goal Fifth-Wheel Trailer James' Education Goal Less than 1 year 1 to 2 years 3 to 4 years 5 to 7 years X 8 to 10 years X X 11 years or more X X X 2. Once you begin withdrawing money from your investment account, how long do you expect the withdrawals to last? Portfolio Unlinked Assets Retirement Emergency Fund Tasha's Education Goal Fifth-Wheel Trailer James' Education Goal I plan to take a lump sum distribution 1 to 4 years 5 to 7 years 8 to 10 years X X X 11 years or more X X X Page 88 of 138

89 3. Inflation, the rise in prices over time, can erode your investment return. Long-term investors should be aware that, if portfolio returns are less than the inflation rate, their ability to purchase goods and services in the future might actually decline. However, portfolios with long-term returns that significantly exceed inflation are associated with a higher degree of risk. Which of the following portfolios is most consistent with your investment philosophy? a) Portfolio 1 will most likely exceed long-term inflation by a significant margin and has a high degree of risk. b) Portfolio 2 will most likely exceed long-term inflation by a moderate margin and has a high to moderate degree of risk. c) Portfolio 3 will most likely exceed long-term inflation by a small margin and has a moderate degree of risk. d) Portfolio 4 will most likely match long-term inflation and has a low degree of risk. Portfolio Option a Option b Option c Option d Unlinked Assets X Retirement X Emergency Fund X Tasha's Education Goal X Fifth-Wheel Trailer X James' Education Goal X 4. Portfolios with the highest average returns also tend to have the highest chance of short-term losses. The table below provides the average dollar return of four hypothetical investments of $100,000 and the possibility of losing money (ending value of less than $100,000) over a one-year holding period. Please select the portfolio with which you are most comfortable. Probabilities After 1 Year Possible Average Value at the End of One Year Chance of Losing Money at the End of One Year a. Portfolio A $105,000 21% b. Portfolio B $107,000 25% c. Portfolio C $109,000 27% d. Portfolio D $111,000 29% Portfolio Option a Option b Option c Option d Unlinked Assets X Retirement X Emergency Fund X Tasha's Education Goal X Fifth-Wheel Trailer X James' Education Goal X Page 89 of 138

90 5. Investing involves a trade-off between risk and return. Historically, investors who have received high long-term average returns have experienced greater fluctuations in the value of their portfolio and more frequent short-term losses than investors in more conservative investments have. Considering the above, which statement best describes your investment goals? a) Protect the value of my account. In order to minimize the chance for loss, I am willing to accept the lower long-term returns provided by conservative investments. b) Keep risk to a minimum while trying to achieve slightly higher returns than the returns provided by investments that are more conservative. c) Balance moderate levels of risk with moderate levels of returns. d) Maximize long-term investment returns. I am willing to accept large and sometimes dramatic fluctuations in the value of my investments. Portfolio Statement a Statement b Statement c Statement d Unlinked Assets X Retirement X Emergency Fund X Tasha's Education Goal X Fifth-Wheel Trailer X James' Education Goal X 6. Historically, markets have experienced downturns, both short-term and prolonged, followed by market recoveries. Suppose you owned a well-diversified portfolio that fell by 20% (i.e. $1,000 initial investment would now be worth $800) over a short period, consistent with the overall market. Assuming you still have 10 years until you begin withdrawals, how would you react? Portfolio Unlinked Assets Retirement Emergency Fund Tasha's Education Goal Fifth-Wheel Trailer James' Education Goal I would not change my portfolio I would wait at least one year before changing to options that are more conservative X X X X X X I would wait at least three months before changing to options that are more conservative I would immediately change to options that are more conservative Page 90 of 138

91 7. The following graph shows the hypothetical results of four sample portfolios over a one-year holding period. The best potential and worst potential gains and losses are presented. Note that the portfolio with the best potential gain also has the largest potential loss. Which of these portfolios would you prefer to hold? Portfolio Portfolio A Portfolio B Portfolio C Portfolio D Unlinked Assets X Retirement X Emergency Fund X Tasha's Education Goal X Fifth-Wheel Trailer X James' Education Goal X 8. I am comfortable with investments that may frequently experience large declines in value if there is a potential for higher returns. Portfolio Agree Disagree Strongly disagree Unlinked Assets X Retirement X Emergency Fund X Tasha's Education Goal X Fifth-Wheel Trailer X James' Education Goal X Page 91 of 138
