Planning can be a boring activity especially if you are planning for retirement. Many people realize how advantageous financial planning for retirement can be while others find it mysterious.

The last thing you want to do is save religiously for retirement only to have your efforts undermined by unexpected medical bills, an injury that keeps you off the job or any of the other surprises life can throw your way. To protect yourself and your family, you need to have three things in hand: life insurance, disability insurance and a savings account equal to three months of living expenses. That way you (or your heirs) won't have to tap retirement accounts for an emergency.
A term life policy gives you the largest death benefit r the smallest premium. Generally speaking, you should get coverage equal to five to 10 times your salary As for disability insurance, look for a policy that will pay 60% of your salary. Before you shop, though, see if you already have coverage (or the option to get it) through your job.

Investment seminar pitches bristle in areas with large populations of retirees, and regulators are warning seniors to be leery. A probe of the meetings has uncovered high-pressure sales pitches for undesirable products, misleading claims and even outright fraud, federal, state and securities-industry regulators said recently at a "seniors summit" on investment fraud. The Securities and Exchange Commission found abusive sales practices with the North American Securities Administrators Association, which represents state securities regulators. This is a report from AARP, the advocacy group for seniors and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, the securities industry's self-policing organization.

There are a number of tax incentive retirement plan options for taxpayers who wish to put aside money for their retirement years. Many employers provide qualified plans, such as 401(k) plans and the equivalent 403(b) plans, for employees of public schools and tax-exempt organizations. Generally, the contribution limits to these plans are the same, and the maximum is $15,500 ($20,500 age 50 and over) for 2007. These plans are generally perceived as tax-sheltered, which means the contribution is not currently included in income, earnings are tax-deferred, and the distributions from the accounts at retirement will be fully taxable. But did you know that it might be possible to designate those contributions to be Roth-type contributions that are not
currently tax-sheltered and will provide tax-free income at retirement? Not all employers offer the Roth version of 401(k) and 403(b) plans, so you will need to check with your employer. Which type of plan is best suited for you depends upon whether you can afford to pay the tax on the contribution now and what your tax rate will be when you ultimately retire.

You can't simply save and forget. At least once a year, especially when you're within 15 years of your hoped-for retirement date. You need to find out where you stand. That way you can make necessary course corrections before it's too late. This can include cranking up your savings or delaying your planned retirement date. Good planning can give you a rough idea of the milestones that must be hit at various ages if you wish to retire with 80% of your pre-retirement salary (minus what you save now). For a personalized look at your progress, visit the Retirement Planner in the Calculators section of CNNMoney.com. There you'll get a nuanced projection of how large a portfolio you need and your odds of reaching it.
