Why a specialist matters

  • Sequence-of-returns protection: Guardrails + 2–4 years of cash/short bonds so you aren’t forced to sell low.
  • Tax-smart income: Coordinate brokerage/IRA/Roth withdrawals with Social Security timing.
  • Healthcare bridge: Plan MAGI/ACA before 65; smooth your Medicare transition.
  • Purpose-based spending: Fund the life you want—travel, family, breathing room.

Your Amherst Blueprint

1) Numbers that matter: Translate lifestyle costs into an inflation-aware target; stress-test it; set a
withdrawal guardrail (e.g., 3.5–4%).

2) Tax-efficient paycheck: Roth conversions in low-income years (pre-RMD), capital-gain harvesting, and smart account sequencing.

3) Portfolio for paychecks: Bucket strategy; rebalance rules; harvest losses; direct dividends to cash.

What if markets drop? Cash buffers + flexible withdrawals help you avoid selling low.

Should we delay Social Security? Often one spouse delays while the other files earlier—decide from a household tax/benefit view.
