Retirement & Income Preservation
Plan for a secure retirement and protect your income with tailored strategies — ensuring your wealth lasts, your lifestyle is maintained, and your financial future remains stable through every stage of life.
Retirement & Income Preservation
Retirement & Income Preservation is about more than just saving money — it’s about creating a lifetime plan that protects your income, your independence, and your peace of mind. At Ironwood Advisory Group, we help clients build retirement income strategies that last through every season of life.
🔹 Retirement Income Planning
- Lifetime Income Strategies
We design retirement plans focused on steady, reliable income streams that support your lifestyle for life.
- Guaranteed Income Solutions
We incorporate fixed annuities, pensions, and structured withdrawal strategies that protect against market volatility.
- Social Security & Pension Coordination
We help optimize timing and coordination of Social Security and pensions to maximize total benefits and longevity of income.
🔹 Tax-Efficient Withdrawals
- Roth Conversions & Tax Deferral
Convert tax-deferred assets strategically to reduce lifetime tax exposure and create tax-free income streams later in retirement.
- Distribution Sequencing
We plan withdrawal orders across accounts (IRA, 401(k), brokerage, and savings) to minimize unnecessary taxes.
- Minimizing Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs)
We manage RMD impact through charitable planning, Roth conversions, and multi-account balancing.
🔹 Preservation & Protection
- Market Volatility Protection
We use protected growth accounts and conservative allocations to safeguard principal while allowing measured growth.
- Inflation & Longevity Planning
Our strategies ensure your money keeps pace with rising costs and supports you for a potentially long retirement horizon.
- Healthcare & Long-Term Care Planning
We prepare for medical expenses and long-term care without depleting your core retirement savings.
🔹 Estate & Legacy Alignment
- Beneficiary Optimization
Ensure accounts pass efficiently to heirs with reduced taxes and minimal probate exposure.
- Trust-Based Income Planning
Coordinate retirement accounts with trust structures for continued management and protection.
- Charitable Remainder Strategies
Create income streams while supporting causes that matter — with built-in tax advantages.
🔹 Common Retirement Challenges
- Outliving Savings
We address longevity risk through lifetime income guarantees and adaptive portfolio strategies.
- Rising Taxes & Inflation
Our proactive tax and inflation planning helps you preserve real purchasing power over time.
- Lack of Income Diversification
Relying on one source of income can create unnecessary risk. We diversify across reliable streams.
🔹 Real-World Examples
- Married couple near retirement
We structured Roth conversions over 5 years, reducing future RMDs by 40% and saving $60,000 in lifetime taxes.
- Widowed client age 68
Integrated annuity and dividend income to maintain cash flow without drawing principal during a market downturn.
- Small business owner retiring early
Used SEP IRA rollovers into a self-directed plan, preserving tax deferral and expanding investment flexibility.
Client Success Highlight
One retired couple came to us with fragmented accounts and no clear income strategy. After consolidating and restructuring their assets, we provided a predictable monthly income that covered their needs — while preserving over 90% of their original principal.
Key Takeaway
Retirement planning doesn’t end when you stop working — that’s when it truly begins. The goal is simple: preserve what you’ve earned, protect your income, and enjoy financial confidence for the rest of your life.
