Regardless of age, profession, and living location, many individuals possess the ultimate goal of retiring comfortably, including those employed in Raytheon. With that under consideration, it is imperative to acknowledge that retirement does not necessarily have equal value across state lines. One’s state of residency determines their taxes, cost of living, and climate, making some locations more desirable and fitting for retirement to certain Raytheon employees. In addition, income and purchasing power can have different values in various locations of the country. For the purpose of this article, we will be ranking the top states that are ideal for retirement.

 

For those employed in Raytheon, spontaneously moving to a different country with desirable characteristics for retirement may seem appealing. Despite that, it is crucial to consider working with a financial advisor to increase your likelihood of success and consolidate a solid financial plan that will cater to your retirement needs. Research suggests people who work with a financial advisor feel more at ease about their finances and could end up with about 15% more money to spend in retirement . 1  When taking that into account, those working for Raytheon may benefit from meeting with an advisor at The Retirement Group and running a complimentary cash flow analysis to better understand their future prospects for retirement.
