Curious about the newer model? Check out the 2015 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
By KBB.com Editors
While it's arguably the most technologically advanced sedan on the planet, the all-new ninth-generation Mercedes-Benz S-Class remains the embodiment of traditional luxury. In a vehicle that boasts sophisticated innovations like stop-and-go cruise control and infrared night vision, the passenger cabin is dominated not by buttons, knobs and switches, but by wood, leather and a palpable air of richness.
Whether you're drawn more toward tradition or technology, a turn behind the wheel of the S550 will have you singing its praises.
Unlike several competitors, the S550 is available only in what amounts to a long-wheelbase configuration. So even if you're not interested in an exceptionally roomy backseat, you've no choice but to accept a compromise in parking-lot maneuverability. Also, the S550 does not yet offer a rear-seat entertainment system.
The all-new S550 improves upon the outgoing S500 with a more sculpted exterior, more elegant interior, more powerful V8 engine, roomier backseat and a host of impressive new technologies.
Driving Impressions Attack a sweeping turn and the 4300-pound, 17-foot-long S550 obeys like a much more svelte sports sedan. Turn onto a gravel-lined drive and Mercedes' newest flagship seems to...float right over any unpleasantness. Experiencing the S550 at these extremes makes it easy to appreciate the everyday effectiveness of the car's sophisticated air suspension and adaptive damping systems. Inside, the experience is further refined by an LCD-based centralized control system that's the easiest and most intuitive we've used. Outward visibility is good, but any car that measures just a foot shorter than a Chevrolet Suburban and has a 40-foot turning circle can get cumbersome in tight parking lotsa minor quibble that may not concern you as much as it would your driver.
Stop-and-Go Cruise Control
With the S550's sophisticated adaptive cruise control system, even stop-and-go traffic can be negotiated without ever touching the pedals.
Night View System
An infrared-based night view system sees up to 500 feet ahead and projects a big, crystal-clear, black-and-white image on the gauge cluster.
The technological sophistication of the S550 is belied by a passenger cabin that's rich in wood and leather and light on switches and knobs. By extending the hooded gauge cluster to include the big LCD, designers were able to give the front of the cabin a clean, horizontal flow that's highlighted at night by a band of orange-tinted light falling from beneath the wood trim. By tracking the location of its passengers and the sun, the S550 can keep everyone comfortable by blowing more cool air on those sitting on the sunny side of the car. Passengers in back are also afforded the luxury of reclining seatbacks. All in all, the inside of a S550 is one of the nicest places you could spend a commute.Exterior
Slightly longer, wider and taller than the model it replaces, the S550 features a profile marked by a softly arching roof line and bulging fender flares. The front end features the car's most evolutionary styling, while the view from behind can bring to mind the S550's luxury-exotic Maybach cousins. Because the adaptive cruise control and parking sensors are now radar-based and not ultrasonic, the bumpers are free of the unsightly "buttons" that normally accompany such systems. Details to look for include body-color accent strips in the taillights.
In addition to a 382-horsepower V8 and seven-speed automatic transmission, every S550 includes an air suspension with adaptive dampers, adaptive bi-xenon headlights, moonroof, electric door-closing assists, heated seats, hard drive-based navigation system, 14-speaker DVD-Audio 5.1 surround sound system, six-CD changer, PCMCIA memory card slot for digital music, power rear sunshade and cruise control. Standard safety equipment includes front, front-side, rear-side and two-row side-curtain airbags, Pre-Safe anticipatory safety system, stability and traction controls and brake assist.
The S550's options list includes radar-based adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go functionality, infrared night view system, keyless unlock and start, park assist, rearview monitor, ventilated front seats, dynamic front seats with massage, electronic trunk closer, satellite radio, heated steering wheel, double-panel panoramic sunroof, power rear side window blinds, power reclining rear seats, heated and ventilated rear seats and independent dual-zone rear air conditioning. Full-time four-wheel drive will be available in the fall of 2006.
A new 5.5-liter V8 generates 80 more horsepower than the 5.0-liter unit in the outgoing S500, but according to Mercedes returns the same fuel economy. The seven-speed automatic transmission is able to skip up to three gears when downshifting for more responsive subsequent acceleration. Together, the new engine and transmission work to move the substantial S550 to 60-miles per hour in 5.4 secondsnearly a second quicker than its predecessor.
5.5-liter V8
382 horsepower @ 6000 rpm
391 lb.-ft. of torque @ 4800 rpm
EPA city/highway fuel economy: 16/24

"Most people think it's a brand new model Mercedes! It rides smooth on all roads but on the Interstate?!...it's an unreal experience. The leg room whether in the front seat or backseat is amazing. My family of 5 travels long distances with no problem. The trunk space is also incredible. The sound system, built in phone, 6-pack CD player, MP3, Navigation System, Bluetooth etc,, make it an entertainment system on wheels. Heated seats are nice but this car has Air Conditioned seats too!"

Pros: "High quality, comfort, safety, handsome design."
Cons: "Lack of interior storage space, avg trunk space."
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10
"I searched every make and model for a car that would fit my needs - this far exceeds my expectations. It rides and drives like no other. There are others that come close, but for safety, comfort and reliability, you cant ask for more. I got the Designo Espresso Mocha Black, premium black and sand leather interior, rear seat package, night vision (very handy on dark roads). AMG Sports plus one package. Every passenger has their own space and doesn't feel cramped. Excellent touring car and despite its size, its fun to drive in the city. MPG is averaging at 17 MPG in city - not bad for this type of car. The rear seat package also reduces the trunk size, but trunk is adequate. You also lose the lower level of front center console storage space due to rear seat climate control system and venting system. I miss a deep place to put "stuff", but it keeps me from accumulating excess stuff. lots of storage in side doors and under arm rests. Multicontour/massaging seats also eliminate storage drawers under the front seats. However, the trade-off for all the comfort options make up for lack of storage space. You cant beat the seating comfort and support they give you. They certainly hold you in place as you turn corners. Although you can use voice commands for just about everything its not simple. Still not a fan of the Comand module/mouse for most of the controls. I like simplistic buttons, knobs, and switches. Sure the car was pricey at $125,000, but I plan on keeping it for a long time and consider it an investment as far as safety, quality, build and dependability. Don't get me wrong - I LOVE the car and feel its the best car on the road - its just a lot of car with lots of features - I probably don't know half of what the car can actually do!! The craftsmanship of this car is remarkable."

Norwalk Breast Augmentation reviews
93% of Norwalk reviewers said Breast Augmentation was worth it
"Wanted a Natural Look, Got Exactly..."
I had thought about getting breast augmentation for about 10 years and finally at 30 decided to pull the trigger. I am so happy that I did. The whole process to date has been amazing. The day of surgery I actually felt great, I had no nausea and minimal pain, really just minor pressure. I came home ate some food and watched movies, went to bed at a normal time and slept the whole night. I... more
"325cc High Profile Vs 350cc Moderate..."
My procedure is scheduled for Nov. 24th and I KNOW i have a long way to go but I cannot contain myself (and my excitement) from starting documenting this journey from the very early stages. Ohh I am trying to get a full C/small D and after several appointments with different doctors most of them suggested 300cc but I a wondering if that is gonna be enough to fill up all the space lol, I guess... more
"Started with A Cup/small B. Got..."
Since age 14 I have been wanting breast implants! Depending on my weight, I vary from an A to a small B. After years of wanting to get a BA & after TONS of research, I finally decided to go for it!! I had my surgery today at Dr Greenwalds state of the art, brand new surgery center right in Westchester, NY (Harrison, NY). Everthing went very smoothly. The surgery itself only takes an hour. I... more
"27 years old, no children, 5'2......"
I have been thinking about breast augmentation on and off for about 10-12 years. I have recently decided that it's now a real possibility and have sought out a consultation by a wonderful local plastic surgeon on Long Island in NY. While i loved almost all the results on my PS's site and here on real self I am unsure if breast shape will allow for the results I want. I feel as though my... more
"Dr. DeVita Breast Augmentation Botch..."
Horrible Breast augmentation with Dr. DeVita…Do not choose this Dr..he botched my breast augmentation surgery and did something to my shoulder during surgery that I needed PT and ended up with a frozen shoulder…I needed to find another Dr to do the revision and he told me that Dr. Devita Cut me so bad internally and thats why the implants dropped. It was a totally botch job…run from this... more
"Rhinoplasty + Breast Augmentation -..."
Dr. C is a professional. He is very intelligent and talented as well. I got a rhinoplasty ( made my nose narrower) and breast augmentation ( under the muscle from size B to D). If you want natural but perfect results go for him. The price is for both procedures, they were made at the same day. No regrets. ...after 2 months loving results even more. No pain, no breathing problems,... more
"26 Years Old, Amazing Breast..."
Dr. Greenwald did an amazing job with my breast augmentation. I asked for implants as big as possible but still looking natural. And it is exactly what I got. He suggested silicon implants for a more natural feel and I couldn't be happier with this choice. The recovery was fast and the scars are minimal. more
"EXTREMELY PLEASED 25 Year Old, 32A-..."
I have always been out of proportion, very curvy on the bottom and completely flat on top. I have always wanted to get a Breast Augmentation done and finally decided to go for it. The cost of the procedure was extremely reasonable and I couldn't be more satisfied. I am SO SO pleased with my results. Dr. Adler is the best plastic surgeon on Long Island! I got a BA with Dr Adler on May 14th.... more
"26, No Children but Taken 6 Days..."

"Done!! I have tig ol bittys :)"

He wants to go over the muscle but under something else I forget what it's called so I was calling it an inbetweener I'll update with the correct information When i get it..I'm 36 mom of a 13 year old boy and a 10 year old girl..I'm 5.4 and a healthy 145 pounds I work out 5-6 days a week..addicted to... more
"32 Years Old... Lost 125lbs and..."
Having my consultation next week very excited!!! So I have lost a whole lot of weight and my boobs have turned into skin bags!!! They also are very uneven. Just looking for some info on the new Gummy Bear implants, and this 24 hour Rapid Recovery how true is it? Any thoughts would be great! Ty ???????? more
Ever since I was 13 years old I have wanted to have breast augmentation! My boobs just never grew! In fact, I was always an A cup, but after putting on weight, I am now a small B cup. I was concerned about getting surgery due to my weight. I was nervous of any complications I may have because I am considered obese. I am 5' 7'' and 214 pounds. My heaviest was 230, and I am planning on getting... more
"Amazing Physical Recovery Period! -..."
It has only been 3 weeks since I got my Breast surgery (implants) and at this point I don't know how will my scars look like. But the breasts are amazing and the most wonderful thing for me as a mom of 4 year old kid was the recovery period. Shorter than flu! 2 days! On the 3rd day I could easily cook and do the laundry/cleaning staff. Of course it was not very easy to sleep downwards but... more
"23 Years Old, Wanted a Breast..."
I am extremely happy with my surgery! I wanted breast implants but I did not want to go too big or un-natural looking in any way. I originally had B cups but they had gotten smaller from working out and loosing weight so they were really an A cup when I had the surgery done. I am extremely happy with my breasts now, they are perfect for me. They look so natural, they look like they actually... more
"28 Year Old FORMER President of the..."
Dr. Greenwald gave me a breast augmentation and I am beyond thrilled!!! I was very small to begin with so I was concerned about having a natural result that suited my body type. I went with 350cc and went from a small A cup to a small D cup. Me and my fiancé LOVE them!!! After having consultations with 2 other doctors last year I met Dr. Greenwald. From the initial consult I knew I wanted... more
"24 Yo 375 Cc Mod Plus Under Muscle..."
I'm very happy with my results and recovery but wishing just like most of you that I went bigger (at least 400cc). Dr.Greenwald did do a great job and the recovery was much easier than I thought. I'm on day 6 and feeling great. I wish I would've focused more on size than lists of things I thought I needed for recovery. more
"35 Yr Old Mom of 2 Beautiful Girls!..."
After I had my second child, I noticed that my breast looked deflated on top. I was not big breasted to begin with, so whatever I had, was now gone. I hated the way I felt & looked for 3yrs. I was going back & forth with the decision of, should I do it, should I not.. Finally it took some courage, but I went for a consult, thanks to great recommendations & that's when I took the plunge!!!! more
"Excellent!! - Huntington, NY"
Had a breast augmentation with dr romanelli on Jan 2. I had 300 cc's unders. I have been very happy so far. Dr Romanelli, the anesthesiologist and staff were all wonderful. Recovery has been great. I was able to raise my hands over my head the evening of surgery. I felt back to normal after 36 hours and only needed pain meds for first 24 hours. Had surgery Thursday and back to work... more
I was very concerned about finding the right surgeon and did a lot of research before I emailed Dr. Greenwald through his website. Right off the bat, his prompt email reply was something that I appreciated. There aren't enough good words to say about my experience with Dr. Greenwald and his staff. At the consultation Dr. Greenwald was very honest, professional and caring and I trusted him... more

NARS Spring 2012 Collection. The Gaiety blush is a gorgeous bright candy pink that is calling my name. The Paramaribo eyeshadow duo is one of the prettiest bronzy-green palettes that I have seen in a long long time, but NARS shadows always crease and fade on me with or without primer-- so I will have to swatch this before committing to it, but wow is this GORGEOUS!
Are you hauling or passing?

AOL announced the launch of AOL [Register or Login to view links], a new site that targets parents of children ages 5-17 and helps them decipher the world of games, both PC and console.Sponsored Links
PlaySavvy also helps parents stay aware of their kids' entertainment choices including assisting them in making informed decisions about buying games for their children.

This year, AOL launched several targeted sites including ParentDish.com, [Register or Login to view links], Lemondrop.com, [Register or Login to view links], WalletPop.com, [Register or Login to view links], and Holidash.com, [Register or Login to view links].
"Playing video games is one of the top pastimes for children these days, almost more than watching TV. We created AOL PlaySavvy to help parents navigate through all the gaming information out there in order to decide what's appropriate for their children," said Libe Goad, Editor-in-Chief, AOL PlaySavvy. "In addition, PlaySavvy provides advertisers the opportunity to reach this targeted user base by creating appealing campaigns around the content."
PlaySavvy will provide the following features:
- Gaming 101: PlaySavvy editors help parents understand game ratings and where to find them on a game box, how to use parental controls on the game systems, offer tips on what online games and web sites are safer for children, and provide advice for first time buyers on the differences between video game systems and which one is most appropriate for their family.
- Parent Q&A: Consumers can ask questions about games and get real-time answers from a panel of real-life parents.
- Reviews: Video game experts provide reviews ranging from how appropriate to how fun a game is for kids.
- Relevant How-To Articles: PlaySavvy staff helps guide parents through the video game wasteland including common issues on hot-button topics such as content and safety.
AOL has long been a leader in the Parental Controls space, pioneering the idea of online safety for children when it began offering a robust set of tools designed to help parents keep their children safe online.
In September, AOL launched SafetyClicks.com, [Register or Login to view links], a new online safety education Web site, and introduced an improved version of its free, downloadable parental controls software, [Register or Login to view links], that is designed to give parents the tools they need to help protect their children from inappropriate or dangerous online material.

American Apparel Bring Scrunchie Back..
Jun 07, 2009 No Comments
American Apparel have decided to create a scrunchie comeback with their new collection of brightly coloured hair accessories.
Remember the Sex & the City episode in which Carrie ribs author Berger for having a female protagonist from New York that wears a hair scrunchy, I wonder what she would think to this latest fashion release?
So it looks like a jump back to 80's not sure if they will be a hit only time will tell

Today, as The Colbert Report airs its final episode, I'm looking back with gratitude on nine years of great television. I loved being on the show several times, discussing everything from my Greek accent to self-sabotage to the obnoxious roommate living in my head. Here are some of my favorite moments on The Colbert Report over the years.
No one appreciates sentiment as much as Valerie Cherish, the desperate-for-everything actress on HBO's The Comeback, and no one is more equipped to play her than Lisa Kudrow, an actress so desperately talented she'll never want for work.
There are many top 10 lists and recaps of the various shows that we watched in 2014. Here are three shows that stood out to me and that are all at various parts of their series run.
You'd better watch out. Why? Because Santa Claus is coming to town. There are very few popular Christmas songs that have not been turned into TV specials or movies. Below are five random facts about some that might just be on your "Best Of" list every year.
Sunday night's series finale, it's obvious, would have made a much better premiere than the pilot did. It was probably the show's best hour.
As someone who always preferred Joan to Kathy, I will not be watching the upcoming episodes of "Fashion Police." No one can ever replace Joan Rivers. She was a fashion icon and a comedic legend, and for fans like me, the decision to replace Joan with Kathy does not sit well.
I shouldn't feel content with my body and the way I am, because I don't look like these Angels. Or at least, that's what the media is telling me and other girls (and boys) my age and beyond. If they're telling you that too, let me give you a piece of advice: ignore it.
And a pantomime it is, well not so entertaining, no flouncing dames or doleful Buttons or rousing songs, just semi-staged tittle-tattle and bickering. The only worthwhile sentiments, be they raging or insightful come from the audience, across the camera bank. The man who brings up politicians pay rises, the man who demands I stand for parliament (so that he could not vote for me judging from his antipathy), the mad, lovely blue hair woman who swears at everyone, mostly though the woman who says "Why are we talking about immigrants? It's a side issue, this crisis was caused by financial negligence and the subsequent bail-out".
I have cerebral palsy but I've never let it hold me back. Growing up, I was bullied but I quickly learnt not to back down... A bruise will heal, a cut will heal, but when you let someone take away who you are, it's more damaging than any broken bone and deeper than any cut. By standing up for myself, people no longer just saw my disability. It shouldn't define you. I just happen to have CP.
For those of us who grew up in the '60s, hearing accuser after accuser come forward with their accounts of rape and sexual assault by the beloved Bill Cosby is for some of us akin to a child learning there is no Santa, Easter Bunny or Tooth Fairy.
The time-honoured tradition in sexual assault trials is to pry and prod at the complainant until an opening appears, or simply to bludgeon her credibility by any means possible, while the accused watches silently. There are endless variations on this theme, but that's sort of sexual assault law in a nutshell. The Jian Ghomeshi trial will be very different.
The season wrap-up was a reminder of just how epic the last eight weeks have been on "Canada's Smartest Person." Thirty-two Canadians battled for the chance to lord it over friends, family and co-workers that they're the smartest person in the country.
We only learned post facto that CBC planned on achieving its objectives for TV by stripping more than a quarter of the funding from its radio services. How? Fortuitously, another law came into effect in 2008 that required CBC and other broadcasters to provide financial data to the CRTC on their major radio and TV operations.
Family and friends are pretty good, too, but I'm pretty sure we need to make sure you have your viewing schedule lined up for all those free hours in between meals.
For most of this latest series, I was bored, and I know I'm not alone. The acting and directing have been excellent, the writing so far as dialogue and pacing has also been quite good, but the show has felt like it's becoming a bit old hat.

How the AFR reported ASX 200 at 5K in 2010PUBLISHED: 13 Feb 2013 13:49:00 | UPDATED: 13 Feb 2013 15:45:50PRINT EDITION: 13 Feb 2013
Peter Wells
Let's do a bit of a blast from the past and have a look at we covered the market closing above 5000. This is what you might have seen on your way to pick up the paper from the newsagent on April 16, 2010.
It's been an interesting trip down memory lane, and can I tell you how thrilled I was to see Stephen Shore still had the edition tucked away on his desk.
"You always told me I needed to have a good filing system," he said to me a moment ago. They grow up so fast, don't they?
Jonathan Shapiro even Tweeted a photo of me with it. I wasn't crying.
■ But I'm a big fan of having a look back to see what we wrote at the time. Did we call it right? I was in charge, so I'd like to think so. But I would say that, wouldn't I. There is certainly some optimism in there from market watchers. The domestic economy appeared to be in good nick, the US economy looked okay at the time and it seemed as if earnings were coming through.
But there were seeds of doubt. In our Front Page article (see below) George Liondis wrote: "But analysts caution that lingering threats remain that could undermine the stockmarket's rally, notably government debt problems in various countries, particularly in Europe."
That obviously became a much bigger problem than people anticipated.
Tim Rocks (then at Merrill Lynch, now at Nomura) said: "We are concerned that the recovery underway will not be sustained and that risks will emerge in China and across the rest of the developed world."
Tanya Branwhite of Macquarie said "We have passed the first stage of the economic recovery and hence the market recovery ... Now it comes down to earnings growth."
And Robert Guy - hard to fault - "But it's important that investors exploiting the cyclical rebound in growth keep in mind that many of the imbalances that roiled global markets and economies still persist."
Even the Glenn Mumford said: "I'm becoming increasingly wary over the sustainability of this strength once we move through the second half."
■ Anyway, there are a few hyperlinks to stories below, but I have also managed to create links to the PDF pages if you'd like to relive the memories of our "Return to 5000" wrap.

■ From our front page, as written by George "G" Liondis. Quite interesting that Commonwealth Bank was then at a 2½-year high. And today, reporting and on track to post a record full-year profit, the stock is trading at record highs.
The Australian sharemarket has closed above 5000 points on Thursday, for the first time since the global financial crisis took hold, driven higher by an improving global economic outlook and soaring commodity prices.
Strong corporate earnings on Wall Street and buoyant growth figures from China helped propel the benchmark S&P/ASX 200 Index above the key level yesterday, to its best finish since September 2008, when the collapse of Lehman Brothers derailed world markets.
Global investors were also buoyed after Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke said the risk of the United States slipping back into recession had diminished, sparking a rally in Asia yesterday after markets in the US and Europe closed at the highest in at least 18-months on Wednesday night.
"We are in the bull phase of the market and the outlook is positive, though the easy gains on the equity market may have been had," Macquarie Group strategist Tanya Branwhite said.
The S&P/ASX 200 rose 7.2 points to 5001.9 yesterday, extending the rally since the bear-market bottom in March 2009 to 59 per cent, although recent gains have been made on lighter trading volumes and investors continue to be wary about government debt problems in Europe.
ANZ, Westpac and CBA all hit 2½-year highs after JPMorgan reported in the US on Wednesday that earnings had soared by 55 per cent in the first quarter.
The benchmark local index had previously failed to break the 5000 mark since September 22, 2008, a week after the Lehman bankruptcy triggered a worldwide credit crisis and sent global stocks crashing.
■ Some commentary on the market from our resident bear, Robert Guy:
Yay! The benchmark S&P/ASX 200 Index has cracked 5000 points – again. What's not to celebrate? After all, the closely watched score keeper of the wisdom of crowds has delivered a return since March 2006 – when it first breached 5000 – of exactly, well, zero.
Of course those investors who bought above 5000 points and 6000 points throughout 2007 and 2008 are still licking their wounds, while the genius who top-ticked the market at 6828 points in November 2007 just needs another 36 per cent rally to get square.
The global financial crisis had supposedly exploded many market maxims, myths and memes, with the carnage meted out in late 2008 putting paid to the idea of the sharemarket being a perpetual money-making machine with little risk.
Not that many of the lessons that should have been learned have been apparent in the recent melt-up across global equity markets over the past year.
– Investors have pinned their hopes on earnings meeting raised expectations, with the impending bank reporting season to provide a read on the financial health of some of the market's largest stocks.
The quality of the results will dictate the broader market's direction over the short term.
Those investors who braved the turmoil of early 2009 and swooped on beaten-up stocks offering knock-down valuations have been well rewarded – and rightly so.
It's now up to earnings to continue to justify investor expectations and valuations.
But it's important that investors exploiting the cyclical rebound in growth keep in mind that many of the imbalances that roiled global markets and economies still persist.
■ Some commentary from our resident bull, Glenn Mumford:
In late September 2008, markets were all about fear. Global banking teetered on the brink of collapse. As governments and central banks worked to patch together viable economic lifelines, investors headed for the hills.
That was the backdrop as the S&P/ASX 200 slid below 5000. It would be another six months and over 1850 points before we came up for air.
How times have changed. We're once more toying with 5000. And forget fear – this time we're talking "what's in it for me?"
But how different is April 2010? Is greed really driving this move north?
I'd have to say not entirely, though we're approaching the point where good judgment could soon give way to something less rational.
– Over the past nine weeks we've seen global equities climb 13 per cent, with the price of oil lifting an even more remarkable 25 per cent.
For the moment I'm maintaining a bullish stance on risk. I still see 5500 on the S&P/ASX 200 and $US100 a barrel as viable first-half targets. But I'm becoming increasingly wary over the sustainability of this strength once we move through the second half.
What we've seen of late is a shedding of the residual investor scepticism that kept many sidelined during the run-up from March 2009 lows. And while there's nothing wrong with such an 11th hour shift, the fact that it's taking place after advances of some 60 per cent, you'd be forgiven for thinking horses and stable doors.
The closer we get to 5500, or 5350, or whatever turns out to be the high point of our current run, the more difficult the argument over relative risk/reward becomes.

Potential Risks To Retirement
If you cannot stomach the idea of riding the ups and downs of the financial markets in pursuit of long-term gain, annuities may be worth considering. Annuities are essentially investments that have an insurance component, but there are various types of annuities, each offering different features. For example, an annuity may offer a cost-of-living adjustment that can be used as a means to help protect your retirement savings against the impact of inflation over time.
Take the temperature of health care costs: Longer life spans, skyrocketing medical costs
and decreasing health care coverage by private
employers make managing medical expenses a
significant concern for retirees. New health care provisions
set to go into effect in 2014 may reduce premiums somewhat, but if medical costs continue to trend higher, it is projected that half of retirees in 2030 could spend more than one-quarter of their income on medical bills and insurance premiums.* To help pay some of the services not covered by Medicare, you might consider purchasing supplemental health insurance and boosting the savings you have earmarked for medical expenses in retirement.
Think long term: One of the greatest risks to retirement planning is the cost of long-term care. That's because one-third of people will need some type of long-term care during their lives, according to the National Association of Health Underwriters. Medicare may help, but currently, it only covers a maximum of 100 days in a nursing home. That's why it is a good idea to consider what options you have to meet potential on-term care costs. Paying out of pocket is a possibility for some with sufficient means. You may also consider disability income insurance and securing a long-term care solution to help protect your lifetime savings against the potentially devastating financial impact that a prolonged injury or illness can create. Long-term care insurance is based on age, so the earlier you purchase a policy, the lower the annual premiums may be. Other long-term care solutions are also available if you do not qualify.
"Developing a realistic financial plan to help meet your needs as you transition into and through retirement doesn't have to be overwhelming," said Urbanski. "There is a lot to look forward to in retirement, including having the time and freedom to pursue whatever activities make you happiest." Your BMO Harris Financial Advisor can provide useful information, as well as valuable perspective, on the options for successfully creating the lifestyle you want now and for years to come. Visit www.bmoharris.com/financialadvisors for tips and guidance to help you plan for your retirement needs -- whether you are currently saving for, nearing or living in retirement.
