Our Growth and Income Strategy
We bring a powerful new approach to understanding and managing your money, designed so you can enjoy an active, fulfilling retirement. So, when you ask yourself that vital question –“How much do I need to retire?” We can give you the answer.
For example:
Say you have a $4 million nest egg. You decide to withdraw a 4% income stream from your nest egg every year to live your desired lifestyle.
After a year, say, a significant unexpected expense comes up. You must withdraw an additional $500,000 cash beyond your monthly income. This reduces your nest egg’s relative value to $3,500,000, reducing your yearly payout. You just gave yourself a pay cut in retirement. That’s the last thing you want to do—significantly since inflation increases the cost of living during your 20–30 years of retirement.
We have strategies that can help you.
How much do I need to retire? How am I doing so far? Everyone asks these questions at some point. We’re here to take the guesswork out of your retirement planning, clarifying where you stand so you can be confident about where you’re headed. That starts with defining your vision of success. Together, we’ll map out a plan considering your challenges, goals, and aspirations.

Your Tranel advisor isn’t working alone, they are guided by an internal investment team with more than 100 years of experience. They bounce ideas off of each other and bring in other advisors if your situation requires additional support. Egos are left at the door, and the focus is on your success.
