Rethinking Retirement: Timing Risk
An important lesson to realize is that losses can overpower gains. In order to “make up” for a loss, a higher percentage return is necessary to make up for the lost funds. Simply put, after a loss, you have less assets to work with, so the remaining assets have to work harder to compensate. Although this can be a minor setback if you are in your early savings years, the closer the losses are to your target retirement age—or if losses occur during retirement—the more impactful the losses can be to your standard of living.
