Seasoned retirement and financial strategist, Mark Kinney, demystifies some common investment myths that could limit your investment potential.

Lee, Massachusetts—April 7, 2016—Founding partner of Toole, Kinney & Company, Inc., Mark Kinney, CFP®, published a new article entitled, “3 Investment Myths Demystified.” In the article, he offers insights to new and old investors alike, hazarding them against investment myths that are often touted as conventional wisdom.

Regarding the investment myth “Always do what you’ve always done” Mark states,

“A common theme I encounter in my practice for those approaching retirement with accumulated assets is the assumption that they should continue to invest the same way during retirement as they did while employed.  This couldn’t be further from what experience has confirmed.  Investment and tax strategies used to effectively protect and distribute wealth are inherently different than those used to accumulate wealth.  More specifically, attempting to invest for growth in hopes the annual appreciation will be sufficient enough to support annual income needs has been found to be one of the key reasons many are prematurely depleting their retirement assets.”
