Something shifts in your 50s.
For many high-achieving professionals, this is the decade where priorities evolve, from building a career to designing a life of purpose, freedom, and security.
It’s no longer just about growing assets.
It’s about positioning your wealth to support the life you actually want.
Here’s where our clients in their 50s start focusing:
- Set meaningful milestones, like $1M+ in non-retirement investments by age 60
- Define how much income you’ll need in retirement in today’s dollars
- Estimate Social Security or pension benefits
- Create a monthly investment plan to close the gap
- Stay growth-oriented (don’t de-risk too early)
- Update estate documents and beneficiary designations
- Strategize around healthcare and long-term care
This decade isn’t just about preparing for retirement.
It’s about creating a blueprint for your next chapter and funding it with clarity and confidence.
- Not sure your current advisor is planning beyond the surface?
- Don’t have a plan yet?
At Crescent Private Wealth, we specialize in helping successful professionals and families build forward-looking financial plans that reflect who you are and where you’re going.
If you’re considering a change from your current advisor, the process is simpler than you think.
