Plan for future expenses

Plan ahead for the unknown expenses in retirement

You have plans. Hobbies, travel and more time with family might top the list. Paying for health care and unexpected expenses are probably not the first things on your mind for retirement, but it’s vital that you prepare for them. There are ways to protect your retirement income with flexible, yet stable solutions that help you manage the unexpected.

Plan ahead for increased health care costs

Today, fewer people can depend on Social Security or an employer pension to cover their day-to-day living expenses in retirement like health care and a mortgage. Having the retirement income to pay for supplemental insurance along with long-term care insurance is critical. Learn how a life insurance policy can provide income and help cover essential expenses.

Prepare for long-term care expenses

While no one can predict what will happen in the future, planning for long-term care costs may help reduce worry and protect what you’ve saved, so that you can pass on money to loved ones. Your Ameriprise financial advisor can show you solutions that can help you feel more confident about these and other future expenses.

Protect your income if you become ill or injured

You want to protect and provide for what matters most – especially if you become injured or ill. Disability insurance can provide an income “safety net.” Even if your work provides disability benefits, it may not be enough. A personal disability insurance policy can help cover the gaps. Speak with your advisor about your needs.
