Who this retirement planner is for

This planner is for anyone within a few years of retiring, or already enjoying it, who wants a clear picture of money and a clear picture of life. It suits couples planning together, people leaving full-time work gradually, and anyone who feels unsure what their days will look like once the alarm clock is gone.

How to use your retirement planner

Start with the retirement vision page and describe the life you want. Mark key dates on the timeline, such as pension start ages. List every income source and build a realistic retirement budget. Track savings as they grow and work through the before I retire checklist. Then have some fun: fill in the bucket list and sketch your ideal week. Keep important contacts in one place and record your wishes and legacy notes for family.
