Just graduated? Time to start your retirement plan (really) – ATB Wealth

Happy Graduation Season, Okanagan! 🎓 As a new wave of talent steps into the local workforce, it’s the perfect time to reflect on what the future holds for your graduate both in their career and financial planning.

One thing is guaranteed: Their retirement will look different from yours. To build a future that is uniquely their own, they have to tap into their true earning power early.

In this Good Advice article from the experts at ATB Wealth they tackle the misconceptions that often lead professionals astray before they even begin planning. 

They break down:

Myth #2: Why relying on the standard “65-75% of your pre-retirement income” rule of thumb could leave you with a shortfall.

Find out how to help your graduate harness the science of compounding and growing a nest egg that matches their goals?
