Living Well in Retirement

Life after work is a new chapter—one that deserves clarity and confidence. Branning Wealth Management provides financial planning for retirees to help you live the life you’ve worked so hard to build. Whether you’ve been retired for years or are just stepping away from your career, our team helps you manage income, protect assets, and plan for the years ahead.


Even in retirement, financial planning doesn’t stop. We help you adapt to changing market conditions, healthcare costs, and lifestyle goals while making sure your money continues to support your independence and security.

Using a structured “bucket” approach, we separate near-term income from long-term investments—ensuring that market fluctuations don’t disrupt your cash flow. We coordinate distributions across accounts for tax efficiency and income stability.

Annual Reviews & Adjustments

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is it too late to improve my plan if I’m already retired?

    Not at all. We often help retirees in their 70s or 80s improve their withdrawal strategies, lower fees, and simplify their finances.

  • How much can I safely withdraw each year?

    We typically start with a sustainable 4% guideline, then personalize it based on your portfolio, income sources, and market performance.

  • Should I downsize my home?

    Downsizing can free up funds and reduce expenses, but it’s not always the right move. We help you weigh both the financial and emotional impacts before deciding.

  • What if I face high medical expenses later?

    We prepare for healthcare costs by setting aside reserves, reviewing insurance options, and adjusting spending plans if necessary.

  • Can you work with my children or family?

    Yes. With your permission, we can include your family in planning discussions and coordinate their future involvement for seamless continuity.

Retirement should be fulfilling, not stressful. Branning Wealth Management provides personalized, ongoing support to help you enjoy this chapter with clarity and control.
