"Sound Retirement Planning by Jason Parker is an excellent book which addresses the key issues to be considered by one who is preparing for retirement. It covers everything from budgeting and creating a retirement plan to preparing a will and minimizing the tax impact of your investments. One key point that helped me was understanding that retirement planning is all about cash flow and not net worth. Jason also addressed two other issues that were important to me: the need to make changes as one approached retirement and assessing the amount of risk with which I would be comfortable. I wasn't even aware of how significant these issues were until I read the book. I found the book very readable, full of very helpful information and focused on the key issues facing my generation. I certainly plan to encourage all my friends to get a copy. (Disclosure: the author of this book provided a pre-sale pdf copy of the book to me for free.)"
There was some good information here. There are far better books. I've read many. He would never quite give solutions. It was almost like he was promoting his business.
I've read several books over the past few months as I plan my retirement. This was the best; hands down. I will re-read this one and keep it as a reference.
An excellent book that offers options for individuals who are reviewing retirement. It is written in an easy to read format that is informative. The Society of CRFA has added this book to our training package. Lynda McColl, CPA, CRFA Executive Director for the Society of CRFA.
Nearing retirement and looking for information on how to prepare oneself for financial planning, where to invest one's money for the future, I found this to be quite informative on what I need to do in the future to reach those goals to survive through my golden years. What type of investment to consider, how to lower your tax burdens, Will planing for individual, couples, surviving children, those with a small or large estate. A must read for the next big thing in your life.
My husband and I saved for retirement, invested in the market, prepared our wills, and bought long-term care insurance. We thought we were set. Then the tech bubble burst in 2000 and taught us that we needed professional help. For several years, we watched our investments fluctuate, and we worried about what would happen after we retired.We purchased a copy of Jason Parker’s first book two years ago and applied many of the principles he explains so clearly. His new book, Sound Retirement Planning, includes all these principles plus new, updated information that all retirees and pre-retirees must know. The chapter “Can I Afford to Retire?” was crucial in helping us structure our assets to ensure ongoing income and maintain the bulk of those assets throughout our retirement years, with minimal risk.We are now in our second year of retirement, and we no longer worry about outliving our assets. The peace of mind is priceless! If you are the least bit insecure about how to plan for your retirement, you must read this book! We’re giving copies to our adult children, too, so they can start planning early!The author of this book provided a pre-sale pdf copy of the book to me for free.
Mr Parker gave me some important points to consider that I previously hadn't thought seriously enough about, especially Second to Die Life Insurance as a useful estate planning tool. I would say his information can help virtually anyone to one degree or another. Well done!
