Be Aware of Marketing Contacts Referencing TCRS

People nearing retirement are attractive to marketing firms that get a fee for referrals to businesses offering retirement products. We have become aware of third-party organizations approaching members to offer retirement planning services. When contacting our members, these marketing firms often reference your future TCRS retirement benefits.

Retirement planning and counseling are services already offered at no charge to all members of the retirement plan. Members of RetireReadyTN, including TCRS and the State 401(k)/457(b) plans, can meet a RetireReadyTN Plan Advisor for assistance with retirement planning, counseling, or to discuss any other financial planning needs.

Protect yourself against companies that may be looking to profit for their services. Information on how to schedule a Retirement Readiness Review or a Retirement Counseling session is included below.

Retirement Readiness Review

Get a complete picture of your retirement readiness by meeting with your RetireReadyTN Plan Advisor. In your one-on-one meeting, your Plan Advisor will look at your overall financial picture and provide customized recommendations tailored to help you achieve your personal retirement goals. If you plan to retire in the next three years, consider requesting a Retirement Counseling session.

Schedule a free retirement readiness review with your Plan Advisor to discuss:

  • Your retirement plans, including TCRS, Social Security, and your State 401(k)/457 accounts
  • How much of your working income you may need to replace in retirement
  • Your personal retirement goals and planned retirement age
  • Whether your savings and investment choices are in line with your goals
  • Financial planning and budgeting

Get a strategy customized just for you:

  • How long you should work, how much you should save, how your investments should be allocated
  • Learn the actionable steps you can take to reach your goals
  • Review your recommendations and next steps
