RETIREMENT PLANNER
Plan your retirement today.
The average life span now in the Marshall Islands may have shortened over the years, and for the elderly workers who have constantly been bothered by chronic illnesses, they may not be able to look forward to a blissful retirement that may last 25 years or even 35 years.
In some countries where retirement is considered the final career, people make the two of life’s most important decisions, WHEN TO RETIRE AND HOW TO SPEND THE FOLLOWING YEARS. These decisions requires just as much planning and foresight as the careers they are leaving behind.
Making your dream of having a secure and comfortable retirement is much easier when you consider different options available as you prepare for the future.
