Factor inflation into your plan for retirement
If inflation decreases the value of a dollar by 3% per year over the next 30 years, consider the cost of some common items in 2039:
Source: National Coffee Association, National Coffee Drinking Trends, National Association of Theatre Owners, Bureau of Labor Statistics, US Postal Service and Standard & Poor’s Financial Communications, 2006 and 2007. The average rate of inflation is 3% over the past 20 years.

This hypothetical illustration does not represent an investment in any particular option. It assumes that both individuals earn an 8% annual return. Actual rates of return cannot be predicted and will fluctuate. Your returns may be more or less. Of course, the retirement values will be taxed when Michelle and Joe begin taking distributions.

3. Invest For Retirement
Participating in a tax-deferred retirement plan Contributions can be made before taxes are taken out of your paycheck
This reduces the current amount of taxes you pay on your income, since you’re paying taxes on a smaller amount of money
You pay no taxes on the money you contribute or any gains until you withdraw it from the retirement plan
Retirement assets will be taxed upon withdrawal and there may be a 10% IRS penalty for withdrawals made prior to age 59½
You may be eligible to take a tax credit (a.k.a. the Saver’s Credit)1

Assumes a 25% federal tax bracket, a constant 8% annual return, a $1,200 annual investment in a tax-deferred retirement plan (before taxes) and a $1,200 annual investment in a comparable taxable savings plan. This illustration is hypothetical and does not represent the performance of any particular investment. Investing entails risks, including the possible loss of your principal. Actual returns cannot be predicted and will fluctuate in response to changing market conditions. Your results may be more or less. Retirement assets will be taxed eventually (upon withdrawal), and there may be a 10% federal tax penalty for withdrawals made prior to age 59½. This example assumes federal income tax only.

Sources: Thomson Financial and Lipper Inc. Due to the length of time shown, the growth chart uses a logarithmic scale and assumes a $1,000 investment on 12/31/50. It is not intended to represent any DWS mutual fund. Negative periods reflect all market corrections and bear markets of 15% or more since 1951, while positive periods reflect all comparable market rallies.
Index returns assume reinvestment of all distributions and do not reflect fees, expenses or sales charges, which would have lowered returns. You cannot invest directly in an index. Index stocks could have had significant negative results. Index performance may be positively or negatively influenced by a relatively small number of stocks.

Familiarize yourself with these asset classes Stable value products
– Seek to maintain a stable principal whose value does not fluctuate like that of stocks or bonds
– May not keep up with inflation
Bonds– Issued by a government or corporation, similar to an “IOU”– Bond prices rise as interest rates fall, and vice versa– Offer more risk than stable value products
Stocks– Represents a share of a company– Provide potential growth for your portfolio– Offer higher risk than bonds or stable value products
All investments involve risk, including the possible loss of principal. Some have more risk than others. 1Stable value investments can include money market funds which seek to maintain a constant net asset value of $1.00 per share, but there can be no assurance that the stable net asset value will be maintained. It is possible to lose money. Investments in these funds are neither insured nor guaranteed by the US government.

Investment RisksInvestments in mutual funds and in asset allocation funds involve risk. Diversification does not eliminate risk. Some investment products have more risk than others, such as those investing in commodity-related securities, which are subject to market price movements, regulatory changes and economic conditions as well as adverse political and financial factors. Bond investments are subject to interest-rate risk such that when interest rates rise, the prices of the bonds, and thus the value of the bond investment, can decline and the investor can lose principal value. Investing in foreign securities present certain risks, such as currency fluctuations, political and economic changes and market risks Furthermore, there are additional risks associated with investing in non-US companies, high-yield bonds, emerging markets, aggressive growth stocks, non-diversified/concentrated funds and small-, mid- and micro-cap stocks which are more fully explained in the prospectuses. The underlying mutual funds in the portfolios of Asset Allocation funds are subject to stock market risk and invest in individual bonds whose yields and market values fluctuate, so that your investment may be worth more or less that its original price. Please read the prospectus for more information.
