Personal Capital Releases “Retirement Paycheck” Feature
Optimizing retirement income just got a little easier for some investors, as Personal Capital recently announced the introduction of a feature called Retirement Paycheck to its popular online Retirement Planner tool.
Retirement Paycheck is designed to optimize how money can be withdrawn from a mix of investment and retirement income accounts which includes pensions, 401(k)s, traditional and Roth IRAs, social security benefits, and even rental and freelance income, so you get the most dollars in your pocket and pay the least amount in taxes.
Retirement Paycheck is available exclusively to Personal Capital’s advisory clients which requires a minimum account balance of $100,000 dollars.
Right Capital Adds Student Loan Planning Capabilities
The financial planning software from Right Capital recently expanded its functionality to include capabilities around student loan repayment plans. Financial advisers using Right Capital with their clients will be able to illustrate a variety of student loan repayment scenarios based on different loan types, income-driven repayment plans, Public Service Loan Forgiveness, and more.
The student loan capabilities expand on Right Capital’s popular tax planning features with the ability to generate hypothetical 1040 federal tax forms for any client with a financial plan.
