Download or read book Retire Right written by Frederick T. Fraunfelder M.D. and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2009-05-14 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first scientifically backed guide to a happy, fulfilling retirement. Over the years, Dr. Fritz Fraunfelder and Dr. Jim Gilbaugh have seen thousands of their patients respond differently to the challenges of retirement: some rose to new heights; others hit new lows. The doctors began to wonder: How do some people maintain their vitality, interests, and zest for life in retirement while others became distant, even depressed? Is there a magic formula for retiring well? To find the answer, they designed a comprehensive study involving more than one thousand patients. The results were surprising but clear. Financial planning is not as important to a fulfilling retirement as many may think-the psychological experience is just as crucial. The happiest retirees shared eight key traits; all of them were able to: * plan ahead * maintain a positive attitude * accept change * lean on their support network * have a sense of purpose * keep a healthy lifestyle * engage in leisure activities * enjoy some expression of spirituality Retire Right evaluates the reader and provides guidelines for how to develop each key characteristic. The good news? These essential skills can be strengthened, even acquired from scratch, whether the reader is just starting to plan for retirement, is in the early years, or is a seasoned retiree. The first scientifically backed bulletproof prescription, this book is the most concrete guide to a happy retirement.
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 How to Make Your Money Last written by James S Hawkins and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-10-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You may be surprised to know that just a few workers are certain they will have enough money for retirement. How about the fact that almost half of Americans have made NO retirement savings? Such are the facts. These economic figures are commonly recognised at this time. The good news is that you can still start if you're reading this. How to Make Your Money Last will show you how to live comfortably if you're sick of having an uncertain future for you and your family. Although you are in a better position than nearly half of Americans if you have any savings at all, this does not guarantee your safety. On top of that, if you have no funds, this book is a great place to start. And this isn't a get-rich-quick book, either. There is no success formula in this. This book is for those who want to get the most out of their money so they may enjoy it in retirement and for many years to come. When you become older, will you run out of money? The main concern of those who have just retired or are considering retiring is this. You don't have to make plans in the dark, thankfully. This book explains how to maximise your income from all of your assets. This includes investing your money for growth in ways that let you sleep at night, getting every dollar you're entitled to, and how to use your savings safely to increase your monthly income. There are simple methods to understand all of this. No one knew. Furthermore, this book teaches you how to assess your actual dangers. Your money may not survive if you stay with really safe investing options, and your lifestyle could deteriorate. If you depend on conventional income assets, the same can be true. Since you'll likely live longer than you think, your savings will likely last for a lot longer than you had anticipated. This book will show you how to use your retirement assets to create a "homemade" income that will last a lifetime.
Download or read book The Role of Annuity Markets in Financing Retirement written by Jeffrey R. Brown and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2001-11-09 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annuity insurance products help protect retirees against outliving their incomes. Dramatic advances in life expectancy mean that today's retirees must plan on living into their eighties, their nineties, and even beyond. Longer life expectancies are the symbol of a prosperous society, but this progress also means that some retirees will need to plan conservatively and cut back substantially on their living standards or risk living so long that they exhaust their resources. This book examines the role that life annuities can play in helping people protect themselves against such outcomes. A life annuity is an insurance product that pays out a periodic amount for as long as the annuitant is alive, in exchange for a premium. The book begins with a history of life annuity markets during the twentieth century in the United States and elsewhere. It then explores recent trends in annuity pricing and money's worth, as well as the economic value generated for purchasers of these products. The book explains the potential importance of inflation-protected annuities and stock-market-linked variable annuities in providing more complete retirement security. The concluding chapters examine life annuities in various institutional settings and the tax treatment of annuity products.
