What is retirement planning?

You would have to choose investments to reach your retirement goal based on how much money you would require after retirement.

The major factor in setting up a retirement goal is at what age you want to retire .Earlier you want to retire, more is the importance you need to give to your retirement planning.

Take up investments to match your retirement goals based on the risk you are willing to take. If you are a conservative investor invest in risk free securities. If you are an aggressive investor, invest in securities which give higher return at higher risk.
