Imagine this.
You work 40 years.
Do the right thing.
Save and invest your money wisely.
And then within a couple of years after you quit the workforce... you're forced back in.
That's what is happening right now.
Because over the past 3 years, rising inflation is forcing a much higher number of over 55s back to work.
In fact, more than 1.5 million people over 55 have re-entered the labor force during the past 12 months.
Which is roughly 2.5x the level we saw before the pandemic.
But let's make this clear.
If you want to go back to work - there's no problem with that.
My grandfather worked until his mid 80s... because he wanted to.
But the true pleasure of retirement is that you're supposed to be able to...
Do what you want…
When you want…
With who you want…
And more importantly, say no to things you don't want to do!
Because the best part of retirement is having the choice to return to work or not.
And I don't want anyone to have that choice stripped away from them.
Inflation or no inflation.
Low rates or high rates.
So if you're thinking of pulling everything out of the market and going to cash right now.
Consider this...
Research shows that staying in the market increases your portfolio’s potential in the long term.
But in these challenging and emotional times... some of you may be feeling a lack of control.
And a need for education and context to what's going on with your stocks.
Fortunately, we have something that provides both of those.
