Important Factors to Consider for Retirement Planning 

Start Early – Sooner is better. You need to start preparation of your retirement at early age. The simple fact is that if you start saving early, you will likely to save more. Another reason for starting early is your investment will have more time to grow (power of compounding).

Inflation – Inflation kills. Inflation rate is very important factor for retirement planning. Inflation rates keep on changing. Higher the inflation rate means more money is required for retirement.

Invest in Health – Health care expense is likely to rise as you grow older. You should start investing in health from retirement prospective. I suggest to go for health insurance policy along with retirement planning. This will help in reducing unlikely expense on health during retirement.

Hope above stuff will help you in retirement planning.
