Effective retirement planning
Retirement planning is a must in one's personal finance management. Retirement planning involves how much money you need to save now in order to lead a happy living when you stop working.

One should understand that it is never too early or never too late to start retirement planning. If you have not done something, start it today.

In general a person leaves for around 20 years after retirement. That means you need to spend almost 25% of your lifetime without a active income. That is you need to save today a particular some each month, which will serve you after your retirement.

For an effective retirement planning, first know yourself financially. Never be over confidant about yourself and think conservatively.

  1. Put on paper the date when you probably retire.
  2. Write down how much you need each year to lead a happy living as on today
  3. Add inflation rate of last 20 years
  4. This will give you a amount which you need each year after your retirement
  5. If you have 20 years to retire and you expect to live next 20 years from then, you may need to invest a sum each month which will give a appreciated value of this amount on the retirement day.
  6. The calculations are complex, but will just make you know how much you need on that day.
  7. Invest in a trusted retirement scheme
