Looking for financial help? Many people may be wary of financial planners. They have concerns that planners "are usually trying to sell you something," and they "don't like high pressure sales tactics."  But this does not describe most financial planners. Working with a qualified planner can really help get your finances and your retirement plans on the right track. They key is to find the right planner for you.

Read WISER's fact sheets,  How to Find a Financial Planner and the Financial Planner Alert for information on what to look for and questions to ask.

Investing in 2017: Finding a Solution That Works For You

Part of what makes retirement planning a challenge is that we are often planning for the unknown. Things like how long we'll live, how our investments will perform,and what healthcare we'll need are questions we don't have definite answers to, yet we still need to factor them in. This issue offers ideas on planning for the unknown. While we can't predict the future, the more we plan ahead, the more prepared we will be for life's surprises.
