  4. FINANCIAL GOALS

  5. Many planners suggest trying to live on 80 70 % % of your salary while saving for goals.

  6. ACHIEVING FINANCIAL GOALS

  7. DEFINING A FINANCIAL GOAL What you are saving for? When do you want to buy it? How much will it cost at that time?

  8. ACHIEVING A FINANCIAL GOAL Investment strategy How much to save? What account to use?

  9. WHICH ACCOUNTS TO USE For retirement and college savings, a tax benefit can be received if the savings are directed to certain qualified accounts.

  10. RETIREMENT

  11. Please choose this slide (with company match) or the next slide (without company match). Retirement savings: HOW MUCH? 15% INVESTORS SHOULD GET THE FULL MATCH Consider increasing contributions by 2% gradually to build toward a 15% target Assumptions: Individuals have saved (from age 25 to a retirement age of 65) 15% of their annual salary (increased by 3% each year) in a tax-deferred retirement account with a preretirement portfolio consisting of 60% stocks/30% bonds/10% short-term bonds, changing to 40% stocks/40% bonds/20% short-term bonds during retirement. Gross retirement income through age 95 is estimated to equal 75% of preretirement salary, consists of annual retirement account withdrawals of 4% plus estimated Social Security benefits (both beginning at age 65), and is increased by 3% annually for inflation. The savings benchmark analysis is based on results from the T. Rowe Price Retirement Income Calculator, which considers 1,000 market simulations and an 80% simulation success rate using hypothetical age 65 salaries of $70,000, $100,000, and $110,000. That tool’s methodology and assumptions are explained in detail at troweprice.com/ric. Users should consider their own circumstances. Results may not apply to earnings that vary substantially from modeled salaries.

USE IF NO MATCH 15% Investors should strive to • 6% SAVE AT LEAST Consider increasing contributions by 2% gradually to build toward a 15% target Assumptions: Individuals have saved (from age 25 to a retirement age of 65) 15% of their annual salary (increased by 3% each year) in a tax-deferred retirement account with a preretirement portfolio consisting of 60% stocks/30% bonds/10% short-term bonds, changing to 40% stocks/40% bonds/20% short-term bonds during retirement. Gross retirement income through age 95 is estimated to equal 75% of preretirement salary, consists of annual retirement account withdrawals of 4% plus estimated Social Security benefits (both beginning at age 65), and is increased by 3% annually for inflation.

  13. ASSET ALLOCATION Goal: Provide an appropriate balance between short-term market volatility risk and inflation risk for a particular time horizon.

  14. RETIREMENT SAVINGS ALLOCATIONS The allocations above are based on age or time horizon and do not take risk tolerance into account. Years afterGoal Reached Years before Goal Reached GOAL 25 20 15 10 5 5 10 15 20 25 100% 10% 20% 20% 30% 30% 40% 80% 50% 60% 40% 20% STOCKS SHORT TERM BONDS 55% Large-Cap Stock 100% Money Market Securities, Certificates of Deposit, Bank Accounts, and/or Short-Term Bonds 70% Investment-Grade Bond 15% Mid-/Small-Cap Stock 20% International Bond 30% International Stock 10% High Yield Bond

  15. ASSET ALLOCATION ASSUMPTIONS The asset allocation models are designed to meet the needs of a hypothetical investor with an assumed age 65 retirement and a withdrawal horizon of 30 years. The model allocations are based upon an analysis that seeks to balance long‐term return potential with anticipated short‐term volatility. The model reflects our view of appropriate levels of trade-off between potential return and short‐term volatility for investors of certain age ranges. The longer the time frame for investing, the higher the allocation is to stocks (and the higher the volatility) versus bonds or cash. Limitations: While the models have been designed with reasonable assumptions and methods, the tool provides hypothetical models only and has certain limitations. • The models do not take into account individual circumstances or preferences, and the model displayed for your age may not align with your accumulation time frame, withdrawal horizon, or view of the appropriate levels of trade-off between potential return and short-term volatility. • Investing consistent with a model allocation does not protect against losses or guarantee future results. Please be sure to take other assets, income, and investments into consideration in reviewing results that do not incorporate that information. Other educational tools may use different assumptions and methods and may yield different outcomes.

  17. EMERGENCY RESERVES

  18. EMERGENCY RESERVES Adequate savings can prevent the need to use credit cards or raid retirement accounts. 3to 6 MONTHS OF EXPENSES 20% OF INCOME Build over time Set aside

  19. EMERGENCY RESERVES Adequate savings can prevent the need to use credit cards or raid retirement accounts. 1to 2YEARS Build over time Set aside

  20. COLLEGE SAVINGS

  21. COLLEGE SAVINGS • Continue saving toward retirement • Consider reducing retirement contributions ONLY if you have a well-funded retirement account • Save for a down payment

  22. COLLEGE SAVINGS % of total net costs covered for an average four-year, in-state public university This study is for illustrative purposes only and does not represent the return earned by any single investment option. It assumes an investment return of 6% annually, net of fees. But investment returns will vary and could be higher or lower than in this example. The future cost of college was calculated based on the 2016 total cost for one year of an average four-year, in-state public university education ($21,753) for a family in the third income quartile (annual household income of $65,000 to $108,000 in 2012) after the average amount of grants and scholarships for this group was subtracted. The cost was then inflated by 5.5% annually for 18 years. Sources: For the average college cost, U.S. Department of Education, National Center for Education Statistics, and 2015–2016 National Postsecondary Student Aid Study; and for the college cost inflation rate, the College Board. Child’s Age Monthly Savings Amount “Down payment” or about ½ of savings needed to cover the total cost

  23. REGULAR VS TAX-ADVANTAGED ACCOUNTS Please note that the availability of tax or other benefits may be conditioned on meeting certain requirements such as residency, purpose for or timing of distributions, or other factors as applicable. • Tax-Advantaged Account • Contribute money to a 529 • Invest in something • Pay no taxes on any earnings when you withdraw (if you spend the money on qualified educational expenses) • You get to spend the entire balance since you pay no taxes on any earnings • Regular Savings Account • Contribute money to the account • Invest in something • Likely pay taxeson any earnings along the way • Pay taxes on the rest of any earnings when you withdraw • You get to spend what’s left over after paying taxes Many states offer tax benefits for contributions to a 529 plan. That’s just another added bonus.

MANAGING DEBT If debt payments are prohibiting your ability to save for retirement: Target high interest debt (credit cards) and accelerate payments Set a timetable (for example, one to three years) Continue making regular payments on other kinds of debt, such as student loans and mortgages Once debt is eliminated, consider increasing retirement contributions toward a goal of 15% Target debt Continue payments Set a timetable
