Planning for later life finance is likely to be even more important for future generations of retired homeowners than it is today. As we can expect to live for longer intergenerational wealth will become routinely anticipated requiring a narrative that engages people to expertly manage a longer better life. Planning should be considered in all phases of life not just when we hit retirement.
