While milking a cow or going on safari might add excitement to your retirement dreams, adding the following items to your financial bucket checklist can help you work toward retirement confidence:
- Will and estate plan
- Up-to-date beneficiary designations for investment, bank and insurance accounts
- Long-term care strategy
- Health care proxy
- Durable power of attorney
- Guaranteed stream of income
- Funeral plot and arrangements
Don’t worry about changing your mind concerning these matters later on.
