All these suggestions require careful planning and consideration. You must review your own personal financial situation with a knowledgeable advisor you trust. My hope is that this gives you some ‘food’ for thought and some question to take to your advisor when working on your own plan.

Always speak to a qualified professional about your specific situation to ensure the plan you have is right for you.
