This article is brought to you by <\/span>RBC Echelon<\/a>, a suite of private wealth management services for ultra-high-net-worth clients, and PinnacleCare, a personal health care advisory firm.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your financial future depends not only on your ability to create and preserve wealth, but also on your health. The two are closely linked: when you’re in good health, it’s much easier to build wealth, but for those with health problems, high health care costs can make it difficult to build and preserve your nest egg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While people with lower incomes are more likely to report that they are in poor health, according to The Health Foundation, a high income does not guarantee positive health outcomes. It’s important to practice healthy habits at any age, but managing your well-being as you near retirement is especially critical; doing so can help protect your retirement savings from high costs of care and set you up for a long and satisfying next chapter of your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMuch like wealth planning, you have to look at health as an ongoing process,” says Dr. Miles Varn, head of health care advisory firm PinnacleCare. \u201cYour plans and strategies for both health and finances are very different at different ages.” For example, when you’re young, health care is typically focused on prevention and wealth planning is primarily focused on saving for later. As you age, the risks change, and your plans must change accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA lot of people don’t stop to think, ‘How should I approach my health now that I’ve gone from one life stage to another?'” Dr. Varn says. \u201cMany people have financial advisors, but most don’t have health advisors. But what good is your wealth if you don’t have your health?”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adopt healthy habits to boost longevity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Everyone’s situation is different, but taking steps <\/span>to invest in your health today<\/a> <\/span>can pay off later and increase your odds of staying healthy longer. Dr. Varn recommends adopting the habits of people who \u201cage well” to protect both your health and your wealth as you approach retirement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stay active<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Finding options for physical activity, in any form that’s appropriate for you, can provide numerous benefits, such as supporting your heart and your blood pressure. Dr. Varn recommends trying different types of activities, such as walking, running, biking, swimming, yoga, gardening or strength training, until you find one that you enjoy doing on a regular basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eat a balanced, nutritious diet<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/b>Aim to eat a diet that includes more plant-based foods and less processed foods to get plenty of fiber, vitamins and minerals, while avoiding excess cholesterol and saturated fat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, everyone has different food and nutrient needs, as well as allergies, likes and dislikes, so talk to your physician before embarking on a new food routine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Schedule appointments for preventive care and screenings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Your physician can help determine the screenings you need based on your age and medical history. A health advisor can help you organize appointments and connect you to appropriate doctors and specialists, as well as arrange genetic testing to help you understand your risk factors and stay up to date with necessary screenings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Foster strong social connections<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Isolation and feelings of loneliness can have a negative impact on your physical and mental health. Having a community of friends and family as you near retirement can give you a sense of belonging and help stave off loneliness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you need to build social connections, Dr. Varn recommends joining groups that focus on your interests, such as reading, playing cards or chess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not only is it enjoyable to connect with others socially, but \u201cengaging in intelligent conversation stimulates your brain,” Dr. Varn says. \u201cWhen people become isolated, they start declining.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Establish and maintain a sense of purpose<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cRetire from work, but don’t retire from life,” Dr. Varn says. He recommends finding something to keep you fulfilled in retirement, whether it’s volunteering, working part-time, getting involved in a church or community group, or spending time with family and friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manage stress<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/b>High levels of stress can be detrimental to your health. If you’re feeling anxious and overwhelmed, avoid overcommitting yourself and learn to say “no” to additional tasks. It can also be a good idea to build stress-management activities into your daily schedule, such as yoga, meditation, listening to music, reading or talking with a friend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Planning for health care costs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Beyond building healthy habits into your daily life as you age, it’s also essential to take financial steps to plan for potential health care costs. Indeed, a report from RBC Wealth Management found <\/span>the projected lifetime cost of care<\/a> <\/span>for a healthy 65-year-old couple is over $680,000\u2014and that doesn’t factor in <\/span>long-term care costs<\/a>, which could be close to $110,000 a year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat’s why, when we create wealth plans with clients, we include health care as an important part of that plan,” says Dean Deutz, a private wealth consultant at RBC Wealth Management\u2013U.S. \u201cEveryone needs a plan for how they’ll pay for health care throughout retirement, and they also need a plan for the possibility of in-home care or long-term care.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your plan should include how you’ll cover health insurance until you reach Medicare age, as well as\u00a0<\/span>how you’ll cover supplemental care and potential elective care after reaching Medicare age<\/a>, Deutz says. Planning for long-term care could include long-term care insurance or self-funding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf you’re not buying insurance, you need to have a plan for who will take care of you,” Deutz says. \u201cToo many people say they’ll self-insure, but they don’t have a plan for who will help them and what resources or accounts they’ll use.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s important to be prepared for the unexpected, and combining financial preparedness with healthy living is the best approach you can take to be ready to age well in retirement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
