How Our Retirement Planning in Chicago Works

Our retirement planning process is designed to help you prepare for real life, not just theoretical scenarios. Here’s what’s included:

Retirement income planning

How to convert savings, pensions, Social Security, and other resources into consistent income

Timeline analysis

When retirement is feasible based on your assets, career plans, and future lifestyle

Investment allocation guidance

Aligning risk levels with your retirement goals and age

Social Security optimization

Choosing the best time to claim based on your individual or spousal benefits

Withdrawal strategy planning

Smart, tax-efficient income strategies that aim to stretch your savings further

This isn’t a one-size-fits-all service. Everything we do is based on your financial situation, timeline, and definition of a successful retirement.

No Guesswork, Just Smart Strategy

Retirement should be a time to enjoy the life you’ve worked hard to build, but that peace of mind doesn’t happen automatically. For professionals, families, and business owners in Chicago, retirement planning is about knowing you’ll be financially prepared for what’s next.

At Heritage Wealth, we guide you through a structured planning process that helps you feel more in control of your financial future. We focus on practical decisions—like when to retire, how much you’ll need, and how to turn savings into steady income—without overcomplicating things.

Whether you’re decades away or nearing the finish line, our goal is to make retirement planning in Chicago more manageable and meaningful.

Planning for Professionals, Families, and Business Owners

Retirement looks different for everyone. We work with people from various backgrounds—from W-2 professionals in downtown offices to self-employed entrepreneurs across the suburbs. What they all have in common is a desire to retire with clarity and confidence.

Here’s how we help different types of clients:

  • Corporate professionals – Maximizing employer-sponsored plans, stock options, and Social Security timing

  • Self-employed individuals – Setting up solo 401(k)s, SEP IRAs, or custom strategies for tax-advantaged savings

  • Dual-income families – Coordinating household contributions and streamlining joint retirement timelines

  • Late starters – Making smart catch-up contributions and income adjustments for those starting planning later

  • Early retirees – Strategizing income between retirement and Medicare/SS benefits

You don’t have to figure it all out alone. We’ll help you weigh your options and build a plan that fits your current situation and long-term goals.
