Navigating Your Retirement Journey

Everyone’s retirement journey is unique and has different goals, challenges, and oppor­tu­nities. We are here to guide you along the way.

You will need to make many important decisions and, in many cases, you will not get a second chance to get it right. Rodgers & Associates is here to help you navigate your journey leading up to and through retirement by planning ahead, answering your questions, and keeping you on track.

Our AGILE Retirement Framework

Turning your retirement goals into reality takes planning and dedication. Through over 20 years of experience working with clients on their retirement journey, we’ve identified 5 phases of retirement, which we call AGILE. Each of the 5 phases presents unique planning oppor­tu­nities and pitfalls. It takes knowledge, skill, experience, and disci­pline to navigate these phases. As retirement specialists, our advisers guide clients like you on their retirement journey every day. Retirement planning isn’t just something we do; it’s our specialty.

Along the way, we’ll discuss the progress of your journey and what lies ahead, assess new findings, and create a plan that keeps you moving forward. We use our full range of services to provide you with what you need to make the most of your retirement.
