Frequently Asked Questions

Your questions, answered


Do I need a certain amount of savings to attend?

No — the retirement workshop is free and open to everyone. Private consultations are best suited for households with more established savings, but you’re always welcome to start with the workshop, wherever you are in your journey.

What counts as liquid financial assets?

Liquid financial assets include 401(k), 403(b), and TSP accounts; Traditional and Roth IRAs; brokerage and investment accounts; annuities; CDs; savings and money market accounts; other liquid financial assets; and life insurance cash value. They do not include your primary residence, vehicles, personal property, estimated business value, or future inheritance.

Do I have to buy anything?

No. Education always comes first. There is never any pressure, and if keeping your existing plan or making no change is appropriate, Tracy will tell you.
