What You Need To Know About Women's Longevity & Retirement Planning

Lauren Smith |

As a woman, one of the most significant challenges we face in retirement planning is accounting for longevity.

We tend to live longer than men, which means our retirement savings need to last longer—sometimes 20, 30 or even 40 years after we stop working. In this video, I dive into why it’s crucial for women to have a financial plan that specifically addresses these unique considerations.

When I work with my female clients, I emphasize the importance of creating a comprehensive financial plan that looks at both our needs today and tomorrow.

Whether you’re still working, retired, widowed, divorced, etc., it’s not just about saving more—it’s about making smart decisions on when to start Social Security, how to manage withdrawals, how to plan for potential health issues or long-term care and so much more.

The goal is to ensure you have financial security throughout your retirement, so you never find yourself in a position where you’re outliving your savings.
