Life Hub at Modern Wealth

At Modern Wealth, we believe that financial planning should be more than just numbers on a page—it should be a dynamic, interactive experience that brings your financial future to life. That’s why we leverage Life Hub, an innovative financial visualization tool designed to provide clarity and confidence in retirement income strategies, scenario analysis, and tax planning.

In this article, we’ll introduce Life Hub, explore how it enhances financial planning, and explain how we integrate it with our comprehensive approach at Modern Wealth.

What is Life Hub?

Life Hub is a financial planning visualization platform that allows clients to see their complete financial picture in an intuitive, interactive format. Unlike traditional spreadsheets or static reports, Life Hub presents financial data in a way that is easy to understand, enabling clients to engage with their financial plan dynamically.

It helps answer critical financial questions such as:

How much can I spend in retirement?

How do my income sources—like Social Security, pensions, and investments—work together?

What impact do Roth conversions or different withdrawal strategies have on my long-term wealth?

What happens if I buy a vacation home, retire earlier, or adjust my savings strategy?

How does longevity risk affect my plan?

Life Hub allows us to model different financial scenarios in real time, providing clients with immediate insights into how different decisions will impact their future financial well-being.

How Life Hub Enhances Financial Planning

1. Visualizing Your Retirement Income Strategy

One of the biggest challenges in financial planning is understanding where your income will come from in retirement. Life Hub simplifies this by clearly illustrating:

How different income sources (Social Security, pensions, withdrawals, rental income, etc.) interact over time.

The impact of delaying Social Security on portfolio withdrawals and longevity.

How different spending levels affect asset depletion and sustainability.

By mapping out your retirement income visually, we can create a strategy that aligns with your lifestyle goals while ensuring financial security.

2. Scenario Analysis for Better Decision-Making

Financial planning is not static—your circumstances, goals, and economic conditions evolve. Life Hub allows us to run multiple “what-if” scenarios to compare different financial choices, such as:

Retiring at different ages to assess the impact on income sustainability.

Purchasing or selling real estate, including the effect of mortgages and liquidity.

Adjusting investment allocations to understand risk and return trade-offs.

Legacy planning considerations and how different withdrawal rates affect estate values.

With Life Hub, you can see how various financial decisions impact your long-term wealth before making them.

3. Optimizing Tax Planning and Roth Conversion Strategies

Taxes play a major role in financial planning, and optimizing tax efficiency can lead to significant long-term benefits. Life Hub integrates tax-aware planning by:

Illustrating the impact of different withdrawal sequences on tax liability.

Showing how Roth conversions can reduce required minimum distributions (RMDs) and future tax burdens.

Allowing us to model withdrawal strategies that align with the most tax-efficient approach for your situation.

By incorporating Tax Lab, we take this a step further to ensure that clients are making tax-efficient decisions that maximize long-term wealth.

4. Pre-Retirement Planning & Savings Optimization

Life Hub isn’t just for retirees—it’s also a powerful tool for those still accumulating wealth. With its interactive projections, we can:

Show how increasing savings rates impacts financial independence.

Illustrate the trade-offs between spending now vs. saving for the future.

Help clients determine when they can retire based on current savings and future goals.

By visualizing the journey from accumulation to distribution, Life Hub helps clients make informed decisions at every stage of their financial life.

5. Addressing Longevity Risk and Survivor Planning

A key concern for many clients is whether their money will last throughout retirement, especially if they or their spouse live longer than expected. Life Hub incorporates mortality tables and longevity risk analysis, allowing us to:

Adjust plan lengths based on different life expectancy scenarios.

Show how spending and income sources adjust after the passing of a spouse.

Ensure financial security for surviving spouses by modeling different withdrawal strategies and Social Security claiming options.

With this level of detailed planning, clients gain peace of mind knowing they have a plan that accounts for both expected and unexpected longevity.
