The Prosperous Retirement: Guide to the New Reality

Rating:
Summary: Great Book on Retirement Today
Review: Easy to read, comprehensive, and it gave me a fresh and useful understanding of modern American retirement. The author, describes modern retirement, and shows how it differs from the retirements of earlier generations. Then he highlights the new challenges in modern retirement, and debunks many of the cliches that have kept retirees from really understanding the kinds of problems they are likely to encounter. Stein then goes on to give his advice, based on a long career as a financial planner, including some advice on the non-financial aspects of retirement. It's hard to imagine how a book on modern retirement could be much more helpful.
