-Review your income and expenses and make sure that you have enough life insurance to provide for your family should you die unexpectedly.
-Manage your longevity risk by deferring as much as possible into tax-advantaged vehicles for retirement saving, including 401k plans, IRAs and permanent life insurance. Check out Northwestern Mutual’s LifeSpan Calculator to see how long you could live in retirement.
-Check the designated beneficiaries on all your insurance policies and retirement accounts. Your life circumstances can sometimes change a lot from one year to the next. Be sure to protect your family by keeping your beneficiary information up-to-date.
