-- How Will You Use This Story? --
(OPEN):
RETIREMENT IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER FOR BABY-BOOMERS WHO TURN 60 THIS
YEAR. AND, THAT RAISES QUESTIONS ABOUT HOW MUCH MONEY WILL BE
NEEDED TO LEAVE THE WORKPLACE BEHIND. BUT, IS RETIREMENT ALL ABOUT
NUMBERS? CRAIG BRIMHALL ["BRIM-HALL"]--VICE
PRESIDENT OF RETIREMENT WEALTH STRATEGIES FOR AMERIPRISE
FINANCIAL--SAYS THAT RETIREMENT PLANNING IS MORE THAN JUST A
FINANCIAL EQUATION; IT'S ALSO ABOUT DREAMS...
(BRIMHALL):
"FOR TOO LONG, FINANCIAL PLANNING HAS BEEN ALL ABOUT NUMBERS.
BUT, SUCCESS IN RETIREMENT IS SO MUCH MORE THAN A FINANCIAL EQUATION:
IT'S ABOUT ENVISIONING THE RETIREMENT THAT YOU WANT, FIGURING HOW MUCH
MONEY YOU NEED TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN, AND THEN STAYING ON TRACK, TO TURN
YOUR RETIREMENT DREAMS INTO REALITY. TOO OFTEN, PEOPLE THINK MORE
ABOUT HOW MUCH MONEY THEY NEED TO SAVE--RATHER THAN WHAT THEY'RE SAVING
THAT MONEY FOR."
