Retirement is a Team Effort
Retirement is a New Chapter
Retirement marks a significant transition, both personally and financially. At The Beacon Capitol Group, we understand the technical and emotional complexities of the moment, and we integrate thoughtful planning with personalized service to help you step into this new chapter with clarity.
Retirement is a process that unfolds over time — sometimes over thirty and even forty years. That's why we'll be by your side to navigate the complexities and celebrate the milestones at every step. We like to think of it in four stages:
Our Step-by-Step Guidance:
- Step 1: Lay the Groundwork (Pre-Retirement) As retirement approaches, we'll work with you to help you define your future, consolidate assets, and address any gaps in your plan with careful attention to potential tax implications, risks, and your overall financial landscape.
- Step 2: Build Momentum (Early Retirement) This is where your plans come together. After finalizing key decisions like relocation and lifestyle, we help ensure your financial strategy considers tax-efficient distribution and benefit election strategies that seek to help you maximize retirement income.
- Step 3: Find Your Flow (Mid-Retirement) As necessary, we'll monitor and adjust your retirement income plan to reflect changing needs and unexpected circumstances.
- Step 4: Enjoy The Ride & Protect Your Legacy (Late Retirement) When your retirement plan is in full swing, we focus on helping protect your family's lifestyle, preserve your legacy, and manage long-term care goals.

1Morgan Stanley offers a wide array of brokerage and advisory services to its clients, each of which may create a different type of relationship with different obligations to you. Please consult with your Financial Advisor to understand these differences or review our Understanding Your Brokerage and Investment Advisory Relationships brochure available at www.morganstanley.com/wealth-relationshipwithms/pdfs/understandingyourrelationship.pdf.
For more information, please see the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC Client Relationship Summary.
2Morgan Stanley’s investment advisory programs may require a minimum asset level and, depending on your specific investment objectives and financial position, may not be appropriate for you. Please see the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC program disclosure brochure (the “Morgan Stanley ADV”) for more information in the investment advisory programs available. The Morgan Stanley ADV is available at www.morganstanley.com/ADV.
3When Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC, its affiliates and Morgan Stanley Financial Advisors and Private Wealth Advisors (collectively, “Morgan Stanley”) provide “investment advice” regarding a retirement or welfare benefit plan account, an individual retirement account or a Coverdell education savings account (“Retirement Account”), Morgan Stanley is a “fiduciary” as those terms are defined under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and/or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as applicable. When Morgan Stanley provides investment education, takes orders on an unsolicited basis or otherwise does not provide “investment advice”, Morgan Stanley will not be considered a “fiduciary” under ERISA and/or the Code. For more information regarding Morgan Stanley’s role with respect to a Retirement Account, please visit www.morganstanley.com/disclosures/dol. Tax laws are complex and subject to change. Morgan Stanley does not provide tax or legal advice. Individuals are encouraged to consult their tax and legal advisors (a) before establishing a Retirement Account, and (b) regarding any potential tax, ERISA and related consequences of any investments or other transactions made with respect to a Retirement Account. Individuals should consult their tax advisor for matters involving taxation and tax planning and their attorney for matters involving trust and estate planning, charitable giving, philanthropic planning and other legal matters.
4Investing in the market entails the risk of market volatility. The value of all types of investments may increase or decrease over varying time periods. The returns on a portfolio consisting primarily of sustainable or impact investments may be lower or higher than a portfolio that is more diversified or where decisions are based solely on investment considerations. Because sustainability and impact criteria exclude some investments, investors may not be able to take advantage of the same opportunities or market trends as investors that do not use such criteria. Diversification does not guarantee a profit or protect against loss in a declining financial market.
