Worried woman

I cashed out retirement savings to help my family, and now I’m worried I’ll never recover financially. How can I fix this?

Helping your family when they’re in trouble can feel like the only choice at the moment. Maybe someone had medical bills, lost a job, needed housing, or just had nowhere else to turn. But if the emergency makes you turn to your retirement savings, it’s completely normal to look at your retirement account and think, “What did I just do to my future?” once the crisis passes.

My parents want to transfer assets right before they retire. Is it a good idea to move so much money around right before retiring?

As retirement gets closer, a lot of people start looking at their finances and thinking about what comes next. That often leads to conversations about transferring money, giving assets to children, or reorganizing investments. While those moves can sometimes make sense, they are not always as straightforward as they seem.
