Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 A 401(k) is not a retirement plan. It is a defined contribution plan that allows you to invest a portion of your salary using pre-tax money. The amount you can contribute is determined by the IRS each year. If you contribute consistently and the stock market performs well, your account balance can grow into the seven-figure range. But if you don't, your account balance will be considerably less than seven figures. #2 A defined benefit program is a true retirement benefit. It is designed to pay you an amount based on a set formula that includes your age at retirement, your total years of service and your final average salary. It is a lifetime benefit. #3 My grandparents, despite being slightly better off, still struggled to make ends meet because they had no pensions and invested all their money in materialistic things for their wives. #4 My mother, who was raised by a single mother, was able to retire at age 55 after working for 30 years, thanks to the lessons she learned from her grandmother. She invested her money in blue chip companies and bought precious metals.
Download or read book The Anti Retirement Book written by Robert E. Levinson and published by Trafford. This book was released on 2004 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My feeling is that you should never retire! In order to stay alive you should work until you die! Successful and timely planning, not for retirement but for rechargement is the main thrust of this book. It will show you step by step how I did it, along with dozens of intriguing case examples of 'others' experience. When The Anti-Retirement Book does its job, it will help you structure a plan tailored to your personal circumstances and needs that will, as you get older, make you more productive, exciting, and have fun filled years in the future. You can design your own destiny on your own terms and within your own time frame. This book is geared to people well in advance of the so called "retirement" age. It makes it clear that the main problem for most people heading there is not financial. At least equally important is how to occupy one's time in an organized way with productive physical and mental activity. And most important, how to plan well to make this happen. Norman Mailer put it simply enough: "Boredom slays more of existence than war." If boredom is retirement's arch enemy, its antidote is diversity. Studies bear out repeatedly that variety sparks interest and excitement. It also presents the challenge of change. Excerpted from www.babyboomers-seniors.com, review by Anita Finley: Many Years ago, I met Robert Levison and was quite impressed with him and the powerful influence he had in his community of Boca Raton. After he wrote this book, I knew why I admired him so much. This is his philoshophy: "My feeling is that you should never retire! In order to stay alive you should work until you die!" ...In writing the retirement book, Bob approaches the project with missionary zeal. "It has long depressed me" Levinson says, "to see so many fine people who could be happily and productively employed wasting what could be the best years of their lives." This in a nutshell is the basic theme of the book. Bob's vast experience qualifies him to review, assess and help readers tailor to their personal needs and desires . . . the wealth of fruitful options accessible. Bob Levison is a management and marketing specialist. But more than that, he is a RETIREMENT specialist. "When you get the urge" he believes, "follow it." This explains why he has many careers. Excerpted from a column by Humberto & Georgina Cruz Driving from Vero Beach to Port Everglades to go on a cruise, we had only 30 minutes to stop in Boca Raton and see Robert Levinson at Lynn University. ...as he talked, his brown eyes gleaming, we could sense he was right in his element, feeling just enough pressure to get a thrill out of it. I've talked to doctors about this. In order to live a good life you must always have a degree of pressure on you," said Levinson, who at 78 - he turns 79 on Friday - has served as a vice president of the Boca Raton shcool for more than 12 years. What Levinson refers to as "pressure" other people might simply call "structure," or having a specific activity at a specific time. And many retirees may find enjoyment in leisure activities and hobbies Levinson doesn't much care about. But none of this takes away from the wisdom of his advice: Always be thinking of what you'll do next, including when you reach the traditional "retirement" age. Even if it isn't work, know what it is you want to do, or you may find yourself without a reason for living.

Download or read book Revitalize Don T Retire written by Lewis D. Solomon and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010-06-01 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Men in their 60s today are apt to enjoy considerably longer, healthier retirements than their fathers and grandfathers. Many stand a decent chance of living well into their 80s if not reaching 90, doing so with a modicum of style. Because one's senior years can be a time of promise, renewal, and revitalization the book focuses on the positive possibilities. Many are creating a new definition of retirement. I call it revitalizing. They view themselves as entering an exciting, new phase of life. They want to be active, rather than risk being bored. Many want to make the transition to something new, productive, and creative. There may be second and third careers, or a series of volunteer activities. By offering the four pillars of well-being for men in retirement: existential, emotional, physical, and financial, concisely and in one place, the book provides guideposts for fulfillment. The book will help point the way for your revitalization a new you. It will help design a longevity plan for the life you want to live that goes far beyond the typical money-crunching retirement planning. It reflects the need for a more holistic approach to living in your senior years, integrating ones aspirations, emotional and physical well-being, and concerns about money. You will see how to develop: your existential, emotional, physical, and financial wellness.
Download or read book Retire Not Expire written by J.L. Edwards and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2020-05-13 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can you afford to retire and live on 50% of your current salary? Have you mapped out an actionable plan to retire with some level of security? Are you reviewing your 401(k)-account balance regularly and more importantly, do you have an investment strategy in place to generate income after you retire? If you answered “no” to any of these questions, you should read on. Like the American Dream, your retirement is based on an ideal. One that gives you freedom. You can choose to retire at 35 or 85 or somewhere in between. Making the choice is easy if you are armed with the critical information you need to know to make good decisions. But what if you only have been given part of the big picture? Will you still be able to make good decisions about your retirement benefits? “Retire Not Expire” is written from the perspective of an employee benefits professional who counsels employees rather than the perspective of a financial planner. The goal of the book is not to sell you a financial services product. The goal is to give you the information about retirement benefits so that you can ask the tough questions of yourself and your financial advisors before making the leap into retirement. We will delve into the difference between guaranteed income benefits versus tax advantageous savings accounts. We cover topics such as making the transition from an active employee to a retiree and we will demystify your benefits calculation. We will touch on the velvet handcuff known as health insurance as well as discuss the importance of asking the right questions of your retirement plan administrator, your human resources advisor and your financial advisor. Most importantly, we will give you a roadmap for making the transition into your best life. Retirement is a mindset. It is not a death sentence.

You need to figure it all out before you leave your current profession! There are actually only three simple reasons to work!

Download or read book We re Not In Kansas Anymore written by Walter Updegrave and published by Currency. This book was released on 2004-04-20 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether you are thirty years from retirement or it's just around the corner, here is the only book you'll need about how to get it together and plan a safe, secure, and prosperous retirement. We all know the scene: Dorothy is transported from the flat terrain of Kansas to the bizarre land of Oz. Her cry, "Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore," may be the best line to describe how people feel about the retirement landscape. It’s one teeming with challenges, from the impact of corporate downsizing on individuals to battered 401(k)s, precarious Social Security, and cuts in pensions and health care benefits for retirees. Many people are intimidated and delay thinking about retirement. That’s a mistake. We're Not in Kansas Anymore is the only guide you need to learn how to deal with the Oz-like reality that is retirement planning today. Walter Updegrave shows how to cut through the clutter, assess your finances, and become your own personal pension manager. • Get real about retirement. Neither your employer nor the government will adequately feather your retirement nest. You're on your own. Only you can take action and responsibility for your life after work. Walter Updegrave shows how to start now. • Develop a simple, direct, empowering retirement plan. Cut through the alphanumeric soup of 401(k)s, IRAs, Keoghs, and SEPs, get a grip, and execute a personal plan that makes sense given your circumstances. • Create a realistic investing strategy and get the most out of your 401(k) and other retirement accounts. • Ensure that your money lasts a lifetime. The Tin Man wanted to experience life with passion and emotion. Likewise, you'll improve your chances of creating the kind of retirement you want if you bring some passion and emotion into your retirement plan and then save enough to make it a reality. The Scarecrow thought his life would be better if he "only had a brain." It was the Scarecrow, however, who came up with the best ideas to get Dorothy out of her jams. Similarly, Updegrave shows that any reasonably intelligent person can execute a successful retirement plan and, like the Cowardly Lion, show some courage by having the discipline, willpower, and conviction to follow it through. We're Not in Kansas Anymore is the best, most thorough, and most empowering retirement guide in print today. Don't leave Kansas--or anywhere else for that matter--without it.
Download or read book Don t Retire Broke written by Rick Rodgers and published by Red Wheel/Weiser. This book was released on 2017-03-20 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Retirement planning was simple and predictable 40 years ago. All you needed was your company pension, personal savings, and Social Security. Those days are long gone. Most public pensions are underfunded, and private companies can’t get rid of them fast enough. Social Security’s own trustees predict it will run out of money in less than 20 years. And most people haven’t saved even a fraction of what they should. Retiring comfortably today is not about saving more, it’s about saving smart. In Don’t Retire Broke, you will learn: Traps to avoid before you retire. How to maximize Social Security benefits. What to do now if you still have a pension. How to keep the IRS out of your IRA. Isn’t it time to make sure you don’t retire broke?

Download or read book Don t Go Broke written by Keith Sprincz and published by . This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People of your father's generation worked for one, maybe two, companies their entire life. When they retired, they received a pension and social security. In other words, they had guaranteed income for life. With a life expectancy of age 70, storms like inflation, stock market volatility, and taxes rarely affected them. But this is not your father's retirement. Chances are you don't have a pension. You have a 401k, an IRA, a 403b...an alphabet soup that puts the risk of investing on you. And not only must you weather the volatility of stock and bond markets, you must also protect yourself against the taxes that await your nest egg, the soaring cost of custodial health care, and the uncertainty of Social Security. This easy to read book can help simplify your retirement planning process.
