This seminar is designed for self-directed investors near or in retirement who want to evaluate and optimize the income portfolio they’ve already built — not beginners.
Join Charles Rotblut, CFA, for six live online sessions, each including worksheets, calculators and reference guides you can continue using long after the seminar ends.
You’ll gain a complete view of retirement income planning — including dividends, bonds, cash reserves, income diversifiers and taxes — with a focus on generating reliable income for the long term.
You’ll also leave with a practical framework for stress-testing your income sources, reducing tax drag and building a more resilient retirement income plan.
