The Kiplinger
Bucket Approach

Feel more confident that your money can last through retirement

Our unique income distribution strategy divides your retirement assets into carefully designed "buckets" based on when you'll need them, providing predictable income while allowing for long-term growth.


Income Planning

Short-Term Bucket

Designed for immediate needs and near-term expenses, this bucket focuses on stability and accessibility. We help you feel confident that you have steady income to support your day-to-day lifestyle—without the stress of economic ups and downs.

Tax Strategy

Mid-Term Bucket

This bucket balances growth potential with moderate risk, aiming to replenish your short-term bucket while keeping pace with inflation. It provides a bridge between immediate needs and long-term growth.

Income Planning

Long-Term Bucket

Focused on growth, this bucket helps ensure your wealth continues to work for you throughout retirement. It's designed to combat inflation and maintain your purchasing power over the long term.

Income Planning

We analyze all your income sources—Social Security, pensions, investments, and other assets—to create a sustainable cash flow strategy that supports your desired lifestyle.

Tax Strategy

Healthcare costs are a significant part of retirement planning. We help you prepare for Medicare, evaluate long-term care options, and create strategies to manage healthcare expenses.

Investment Management

We help you estimate and plan for various retirement expenses, from essential needs to travel and leisure activities, ensuring your financial strategy aligns with your dreams.

Estate Planning

Working closely with our CPA partners, we create tax-efficient withdrawal strategies that help minimize your tax burden while maintaining the income you need to preserve more of your wealth for what matters most.
