Seeing the Horizon

Seeing the Horizon

Expensive they may seem, these large-cap ETFs,
In our fifties we stand, contemplating with unease.
Retirement accounts, the nest egg we treasure,
But does it make sense to give them this costly measure?

The years have flown by, our dreams have been forged,
Our future secured, or so we had thought.
Now tangled in doubts, we search for the way,
To safeguard our wealth, come what may.

Financial whispers beckon, promising great returns,
But caution whispers back, what if it all burns?
The ticking clock of time, relentlessly it ticks,
As we weigh the options, searching for the perfect mix.

To add or not to add, the question lies,
Shall we trust in their worth, or let hesitation rise?
Our future’s in balance, our choices must be wise,
For in these decisions, our retirement relies.

Uncertainty may reign, but hope must not fade,
We’ll tread this path together, unafraid.
With knowledge and prudence, we’ll stand tall,
Navigating the financial waters, embracing the call.
