"They were very professional and delivered results. I recommended them to other people in my network who reported the same experience, and they stayed with CAPG even longer than I did. I am planning to return to them for additional services as it's now been a few years and I'd like to get more guidance with some significant life events on the horizon."

FrequentlyAsked Questions

Q: Is it worth hiring a financial advisor if I’m already retired?

A: Yes. Retirement comes with new financial decisions, and an advisor can help you manage income, taxes, investments, and healthcare while making sure your money lasts.

Q: What should a financial advisor do for someone who is retired?

A: They create a withdrawal strategy, monitor investment risk, plan for RMDs, advise on Social Security timing, handle tax strategy, and help with Medicare or long-term care planning.

Q: How much does a retirement advisor typically cost?

A: Most charge 0.25%–1% of assets under management. Flat fees ($2,000–$7,000) or hourly planning ($200–$500/hr) are also common for retirees.

Q: What credentials should a retirement financial advisor have?

A: Look for a CFP® or RICP® (Retirement Income Certified Professional). Make sure they’re a fiduciary and experienced with retirement income planning.

Q: What are red flags when choosing a retirement advisor?

A: Be wary of anyone who pushes annuities or insurance without explanation, won’t disclose fees, or avoids answering how they’re paid.

Should You Hire a Financial Advisor After You Retire?

Yes — hiring a financial advisor after retirement can help you preserve wealth, minimize taxes, and avoid running out of money too soon.
Here’s how the right advisor helps:

- Retirement income planning: Create a strategy to safely draw from your 401(k), IRA, and brokerage accounts without overspending

- Tax-efficient withdrawals: Avoid penalties and lower your tax bill with smart sequencing and Roth conversions

- Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs): Make sure you're following the rules and minimizing unnecessary taxes

- Social Security optimization: Pick the right age to start based on your needs and benefits

- Medicare and healthcare planning: Budget for premiums, out-of-pocket costs, and potential long-term care

- Estate and legacy planning: Structure your accounts to pass wealth efficiently to family or charity

Choose a fee-only fiduciary with experience in retirement income. Look for credentials like CFP® or RICP®, and make sure they regularly work with retirees just like you.
