Investing After Retirement: Personal Finance 101

Your investments are affected by many different factors, a lot of which you have little or no control. But what you can control is how much you invest and where you invest that money, two things that will likely change as you age.

Investing after retirement requires looking at your current financial situation, and then creating the best investment plan for you. Your plan should suit your level of risk tolerance as well, while also meeting your growth and income needs.

Many investment professionals advocate towards more conservative holdings like annuities, treasuries, and bonds as you get older, but for those willing to take on more risk, you could consider ETFs or large-cap stocks.

Zacks Names "Single Best Pick to Double"

From thousands of stocks, 5 Zacks experts each have chosen their favorite to skyrocket +100% or more in months to come. From those 5, Director of Research Sheraz Mian hand-picks one to have the most explosive upside of all.

It’s a little-known chemical company that’s up 65% over last year, yet still dirt cheap. With unrelenting demand, soaring 2022 earnings estimates, and $1.5 billion for repurchasing shares, retail investors could jump in at any time.

This company could rival or surpass other recent Zacks’ Stocks Set to Double like Boston Beer Company which shot up +143.0% in little more than 9 months and NVIDIA which boomed +175.9% in one year.
