Saving for Retirement was almost automatic. The Thrift Savings Plan eliminates most of the guesswork. You sign up early and let compounded interest do its thing. Spending in Retirement is altogether different. I thought about that a lot leading up to my exit from the workforce. I worried too. What if... It was a classic case of fear of the unknown. I knew how to work but not how to retire. I was like an incoming freshman to a new college of life experience. Then I met Bob King. He took the time to understand me and respect my values. With him it isn’t just about money-management; it’s about retirement-living. He worked with me to develop a pragmatic plan, showing me how my consistent saving could translate into dependable spending. Moreover, he monitors my plan with me, and advises on changes when they are needed. I’m about 2 years into retirement now, beginning my junior year so to speak. At times I still get anxious. Those dastardly “what ifs.” The “Do I need this?” or “Can I have that?” The usual questions. And then I recall Bob’s wise counsel: “What did you save it for?” He has reminded me more than once, “You’re going to be okay.” Spending in retirement doesn’t have to be fearful. I have found with Bob King’s sound financial advice it can even be fun, but mainly it has just been fulfilling.

Before meeting Bob King, I felt anxious about whether my savings would last. He gave me a clear plan that removed the guesswork. Now, I feel at peace knowing my retirement lifestyle is secure and I can enjoy the years ahead with confidence.

I met Bob King at a Retirement 101 class he was teaching.  And I’m glad I decided to attend!  Retirement felt overwhelming. I had accounts scattered everywhere and had no idea if I was truly prepared. The constant uncertainty created stress I carried every day. After sitting down with Bob, I finally felt understood. He created a plan that pulled everything together and showed me exactly how my income would last for life. That clarity gave me a peace of mind I didn’t think was possible. Now I feel free to enjoy my retirement years, knowing my lifestyle is secure. The worry is gone, and it’s been replaced with a sense of confidence and stability that lets me focus on living fully.

I attended Social Security seminars, dinner seminars on how to plan for retirement and retirement felt like a guessing game. I worried about the markets, inflation, and whether my money would last. That stress kept me from enjoying the present and even made me hesitant to plan for the future.”  “Then I went to a movie about retirement of all things, and met Bob King, who was hosting it. I decided to set an appointment and after that everything changed.  Working with Bob lifted that burden of stress. He created a retirement income plan that gave me certainty I never had before. With that peace of mind, I can finally focus on what really matters: spending time with my family, traveling, and enjoying the moments I once feared I couldn’t afford. The sense of freedom and security Bob King gave me is truly priceless.
