By Gabriel Potter, AIF®
I
t may be a trite sentiment, but change is the only
constant. Given the changes to the retirement landscape
– legal, demographic, and financial – employers and
employees can benefit from the advice of a qualified guide
to navigate through the changing environment, preferably
one with broad experience and accepted expertise.
“ ...Retirement is going to
be in our future whether
we want it or not.
It’s whether we’ll have a
dignified and satisfying
retirement.”
