The "Gap" is defined as the difference between your current income and the amount you will receive in retirement.  Sometimes this "Gap" is negligible or non existent, but most of time, it is large, resulting in considerably less income during your retirement years. Our Benefit Analysis exposes this "Gap" and allows us to implement strategies to reduce it.
