Retirement readiness · Long-term savings

Solstice Retirement Planning: a measured path toward a self-funded retirement.

We run focused planning consultations and tailored engagements for people who want a clear, working picture of their retirement readiness — income timelines, asset glide paths, and the savings habits that actually close the gap.

The engagement, step by step

How retirement readiness planning actually proceeds

A planning engagement is a sequence, not a sales call. Each step produces something you keep — a read on your current position, a model of your future income, and a savings plan you can run on your own.

Step 01 — Position

We start by reading where your savings and income stand today

Every engagement opens with a clear picture of the present. We gather your pension entitlements, current account balances, insurance cash values and any real-asset income, then place them on one position sheet so the whole picture is visible at a glance.

Step 02 — Model

Next we project the gap your future income still has to close

That position sheet becomes a year-by-year projection: which income source switches on in which year, how long your assets must last, and the size of any shortfall your long-term savings still has to bridge. We stress the projection against inflation and a lifespan longer than average.

Step 03 — Plan

You leave with a savings plan you can run on your own

The engagement ends with a written plan: a monthly contribution target, the structure your accounts should take, and a review cadence. The model file stays with you, a follow-up review is offered rather than required, and nothing ties the plan to us.

The premise
Retirement readiness is a question with a real answer: will your income, when it arrives, cover the life you actually want to keep living?

What a planning engagement covers

Long-term savings, examined from the right direction

Each engagement is shaped around the decisions that move retirement readiness most. The conversation stays on your plan — no product is sold inside the consultation.

Coverage 01

Savings rate and account structure

We look at how much of your income is becoming long-term savings, where it sits, and whether the structure of those accounts matches the timeline. Where the rate falls short of what your projection requires, the plan names the difference in concrete monthly terms.

Coverage 02

Income sequencing and drawdown order

For clients closer to retirement, the engagement turns to the order in which accounts are drawn down — national pension first, registered savings next, taxable assets last — and how that sequence changes the number of years your money survives.
