Introduction

Investment goals aren’t one-size-fits-all. Whether you’re a recent graduate paying off student debt or a retiree seeking steady income, personal circumstances dictate portfolio structure and risk tolerance. A life-stage approach acknowledges these shifts and tailors strategies accordingly.

Life Stages and Considerations

  1. Early Career: High risk capacity, focus on growth-oriented assets.

  2. Mid-Career: Balancing growth with stability, possibly saving for children’s education.

  3. Pre-Retirement: Capital preservation gains importance, with moderate exposure to growth to outpace inflation.

  4. Retirement: Emphasis on reliable income streams, while still preserving some growth potential.

Statistics

A Transamerica Center for Retirement Studies survey found that 70% of workers in their 20s are not fully aware of how much they need to retire comfortably1.
