Retirement 360

The stock market can be a complex creature to understand. You might have incredible gains for a few years, and then suddenly in a few months you’ve lost all that success through a bad market. There’s an old saying that paints the market as an escalator, steadily climbing in the good years….yet it may suddenly transform into a plummeting elevator, ruining all the upward progress you just had. This week on Retirement 360 with Kentuckiana’s Retirement Coach Alan Mercurio and Wealth Advisor Troy Bolton, we’re going to discuss how having your entire nest egg on that upward elevator might seem like a good idea…until it all inevitably takes a trip downwards. Have you examined your accounts to see what risk level your retirement is sitting at—and if so, is that risk level you’re at now a solid choice for you in the long run? Do you know what options you can use to diversify your portfolio, mixing some riskier moves alongside secure investments?
