Financial Planning FAQs

What is Financial Planning?
Financial planning, as the name suggests, is the process of planning for your financial future using a wide range of financial strategies. It takes into consideration all aspects of your financial situation such as current net worth, expected income (salary), expenses, goals, and realistic investments. The overall goal of financial planning is to help clients plan for their future in a way that aligns with their goals and risk profile.

As a local financial professional, the team at Benefit & Financial Strategies provides advice and guidance on investment strategies and portfolio management to businesses and individuals, among other strategies, with the goal of creating a custom plan to help clients achieve their goals.

How Do I Invest Money Wisely?
Ensuring you are investing your money wisely almost always means working with an experienced professional who can guide you through the many options and strategies designed to make your money work for you.

Should your money be in stocks or bonds? U.S.-based or international? What about alternative investments, such as hedge funds or real estate? Finding a financial professional is the first step towards answering these questions so you can be investing your money wisely and within your unique level of risk tolerance.

How Much Do I Need to Retire?
It is a question that plagues many people, but it turns out the answer isn't always as elusive as you might think. It all comes down to assessing your current lifestyle, the lifestyle you hope to lead in retirement, and calculating just how much that will cost when your retirement years arrive.

The team at Benefits & Financial Strategies will take those factors into consideration, along with your current financial state, and determine how much you'll need to save and the method of investing that savings required in order to help you achieve your retirement goals.

How Much is Health Insurance?
Health insurance is an essential component of your life that you cannot afford to ignore. However, with rising medical expenditures and health insurance premiums, health care (and the absence of it) has become a significant cost for most Americans. As such, it's natural to wonder just how much this essential expense will cost you.

Unfortunately, the answer isn't always clear right off the bat. The cost of health insurance varies widely from one person or family to the next. The cost of health insurance is influenced by many factors, including:

  • Age
  • Location
  • Income level
  • Preexisting conditions
  • and more

There's no doubt that health insurance is a must-have these days. Fortunately, the Lake Havasu City team at Benefit & Financial Strategies can help you find a policy for yourself, your family, or even your employees that meets your needs at a price you can manage.

What are Group Benefits?
Group benefits are a way of reducing the cost of insurance coverage for your employees by pooling the risk into a larger group. These kinds of benefit packages have become an essential part of building a benefits package for employees that is designed to help increase employee retention and satisfaction. Offering great group benefits can also help a business attract highly-qualified job seekers, and can help them stand out from the crowd.

Examples of group benefits include:

  • Medical, dental, vision care plans
  • Saving plans
  • Disability income protection
  • Disability income protection
  • Short-term or long-term disability coverage
  • Accidental death/dismemberment plans
  • and more
