Retirement Planning

The process of preparing financially and strategically for life after work. It involves setting retirement goals, estimating expenses, and creating a plan to achieve those goals through savings, investments, and other financial instruments. The primary aim is to ensure a comfortable and secure retirement, where an individual can maintain their desired lifestyle without the need for active employment.
