Retirement introduces financial risks that are different from those faced while accumulating wealth.

For many individuals, retirement marks a transition from earning income to relying on investment portfolios, savings, and planning decisions made over decades. At this stage, market volatility, taxes, healthcare costs, and longevity assumptions can have a greater impact on long-term outcomes.

Seastrunk Financial Management, LLC provides investment management and financial planning services, including retirement planning, tailored to each client’s individual circumstances, objectives, and risk tolerance.

Our advisory services are typically most relevant for individuals with substantial investable assets and meaningful planning complexity.

WHY RETIREMENT PLANNING IS DIFFERENT

During working years, financial plans often benefit from flexibility, ongoing contributions, and the ability to recover from unexpected events.
During retirement, decisions related to withdrawals, asset allocation, and tax treatment may have longer-term implications.

Common retirement-stage considerations include:

  • Managing portfolio withdrawals during periods of market variability

  • Understanding the cumulative effect of taxes over time

  • Coordinating multiple account types and income sources

  • Evaluating healthcare and long-term care related financial risks

  • Integrating estate and legacy considerations into planning decisions

Retirement planning involves managing uncertainty and trade-offs rather than relying on averages or assumptions.


WHO WE WORK WITH

Our advisory services are designed for individuals and families whose financial circumstances warrant coordinated planning and ongoing advice.

We frequently work with:

  • Individuals within several years of retirement evaluating investment and planning considerations

  • Recently retired individuals adjusting to portfolio-based income

  • Executives and business owners with concentrated assets, deferred compensation, or complex tax considerations

Client engagements are subject to suitability, capacity, and alignment of advisory services with client objectives.


OUR APPROACH
