Goal Base Planning

Plan for tomorrow by setting financial goals today.

You have several places you can invest or store your money and competing priorities on what to save for. When you’re faced with day-to-day finances, it can be easy to put your short-term needs ahead of any long-term goals. In fact, more than one-third of all Americans have saved nothing for retirement. According to a 2016 Retirement Confidence Survey conducted by the Employee Benefit Research Institute, 26 percent of Americans say they have less than $1,000 in savings and investments, and just 24 percent of Boomers are confident they’ll have enough to last through retirement. That’s why it’s so important to be specific and clear about your short- and long-term personal and financial goals.
