The Society of Actuaries (SOA) just published a series of short whitepapers or “briefs” that focus on some of the major decisions that are encountered by retirees.
This is a great resource for consumers who are seeking objective content produced by experts.
The Society has clearly made efforts to create content that is accessible to a non professional audience. The briefs are clear, short and focus on consumer-relevant topics such as “when should I retire.”
There are 11 briefs, and the topics include:
- Big Question: When Should I Retire
- When Retirement Comes too Soon
- Women Take the Wheel: Destination Retirement
- Deciding When to Claim Social Security
- Designing a Monthly Paycheck for Retirement
- Treating Asset Allocation Like a Roadmap
- Securing Health Insurance for the Retirement Journey
- Taking the Long-Term Care Journey
- Where to Live in Retirement
- Estate Planning: Preparing for End of Life
- Finding Trustworthy Advice for Retirement and Avoiding Pitfalls
