During retirement, you won’t have a paycheck any longer, and your Social Security benefit may not be sufficient to meet your financial need for reliable monthly income. That’s why you may want to consider a retirement income annuity, which can be purchased on a tax-deferred basis using a 401(k) rollover from a tax-deferred account, or an after-tax basis as a Roth account. At Clear Income Strategies Group, we are very concerned about the number of people who believe their 401(k) account is a retirement plan, while in reality, all of that money may be at risk from market volatility.

Emergency Scenario
— Jane & Joe
After Jane and Joe were involved in a car accident, they reached out to us from the side of the road — overwhelmed, shaken, and facing unexpected expenses. Because we knew their situation and long-term plan, we were able to respond immediately and guide them toward the most appropriate source of funds without disrupting their broader financial strategy.
Moments like these remind us that planning isn’t just about numbers. It’s about partnership, trust, and being there when our clients need steady guidance the most.
Loss & Family Support
— Ellen & Family
When Ellen called us after her husband passed away, she was grieving, overwhelmed, and trying to make sense of what came next for her family. She and the kids were aware of some of the accounts they held, but navigating the paperwork and next steps felt impossible in such a painful moment. Because we had walked alongside their family for years, we were able to step in immediately—bringing clarity to what needed to be done and guiding them through each form, each transition, and each decision at a pace that felt manageable. We miss Jim deeply. And just as we did when he was with us, we continue to support his family with the same care, patience, and steady guidance they’ve always trusted.
