Retirement marks a significant life transition that 
requires proper planning and management of one's finances. 

In this episode of Invest Smart, financial expert Lovaii Navlakhi shared valuable insights on managing investments after retirement. 

Lovaii stressed the importance of having a solid financial foundation in place before retirement. This includes having a contingency fund that covers not just a few months but up to 12 to 15 months of expenses. With the cessation of regular income, retirees need to ensure they have a safety net to rely on.

Moreover, safeguarding your health is crucial. Health insurance, including coverage for critical illnesses, should be part of your retirement plan, Lovaii added.

He pointed out some common mistakes that retirees should avoid. Firstly, not planning well in advance for retirement can be detrimental. Retirement planning should start early to build a robust financial foundation. Secondly, retirees should seek guidance from financial advisors who can provide support and guidance during this critical phase.

Managing finances post-retirement requires careful planning, a balanced approach to asset allocation, and a clear understanding of emotional aspects. With the right strategies and guidance, retirees can enjoy financial security and peace of mind throughout their retirement years.
