Planning for Retirement: A Roadmap to Your Financial Future

Retirement isn’t just a phase of life — it’s a goal, a vision, and for many, a reward for decades of hard work. But achieving a secure and fulfilling retirement doesn’t happen by chance. It takes careful planning, smart investing, and ongoing guidance.

At Hexagon Capital Partners, we help individuals and families build thoughtful retirement strategies designed to support the lifestyle they envision. Whether you're just starting to plan or approaching the finish line, here’s what you need to know.

1. Define What Retirement Looks Like to You

Retirement is not a one-size-fits-all journey. Some people dream of travel, others want to start a small business, volunteer, or spend more time with family. Understanding your vision helps shape how much you’ll need and how to prepare.

Questions to consider:

• When do you want to retire?

• What kind of lifestyle do you want to maintain?

• Will you continue to work part-time or shift to a lower-cost lifestyle?

2. Calculate How Much You’ll Need

A successful retirement strategy starts with knowing your number — the total amount you’ll need to maintain your desired lifestyle. This involves estimating future expenses, factoring in inflation, and accounting for healthcare, housing, travel, and unexpected costs.

At Hexagon Capital Partners, we use comprehensive financial models to help you determine how much to save and what investments will support your goals.

3. Maximize Retirement Accounts

We guide clients in making the most of tax-advantaged retirement vehicles:

• 401(k)s and employer plans — Contribute enough to receive any company match (that’s free money).

• IRAs — Traditional and Roth IRAs offer flexibility and growth potential.

• Catch-up contributions — If you’re over 50, you can contribute more each year.

Strategic account diversification can help you manage taxes more efficiently in retirement.

4. Build an Investment Strategy That Evolves

Your investment approach should change as you move through life stages. Younger investors may lean into growth, while those nearing retirement often shift toward preservation and income.

At Hexagon, we create tailored investment portfolios designed to grow your wealth while managing risk and adapting to your timeline.

5. Plan for Healthcare and Longevity

Longer lifespans mean longer retirements — and often higher healthcare costs. We help clients explore options like long-term care insurance and create contingency plans to ensure they’re protected.

6. Don’t Overlook Estate & Legacy Planning

Retirement isn’t just about your future — it’s also about the legacy you want to leave behind. We work with you to integrate estate planning, charitable giving, and wealth transfer strategies that reflect your values.
