5 Retirement Mistakes Small Business Owners Make

Dechtman Wealth Management | October 3, 2019

As a business owner, you face unique challenges and opportunities when building your financial future. This special report provides insights on mistakes to avoid and steps to take for building the retirement you desire—while managing your myriad responsibilities.

Small-business owners are an essential component of keeping America’s economy churning. In the United States, small businesses with 500 or fewer employees make up 99.7% of companies and are collectively worth more than $10 trillion.

Too often, however, small-business owners spend so much time and energy building their companies, they neglect their personal financial futures. They might consider their companies to be their retirement plans but don’t create the structure or strategy necessary for turning financial success into a meaningful retirement.

With this report, our goal is to help businesses owners avoid costly mistakes and confidently plan for the retirement they deserve.
