If you are thinking about how to prepare for retirement or are close to retirement, this book is for you. I found it a little difficult to read on my Kindle, so I ended up ordering my own paperback copy. The chapter that I found the most interesting was about Social Security. Who knew there was so much to think about when it came to cashing in on your Social Security?
I liked how easy this book was to read. It didn't feel like a financial advisor that was trying to get my money. :)
I was given this book for my honest review.
This short book is not really a quick read since using it as suggested requires math and thinking. It's great that it starts with an examination of one's values. If you have a financial advisor, you may want to skip this book. Even then, this is should be just one book in your library about retirement. It's rather basic, but basics can be extremely valuable.
Thanks very much for the free review copy!!
This is a great resource for all stages of retirement planning. I like that the author starts out with helping you clarify your vision of retirement. This is an important exercise for anyone to go through as retirement can feel very vague and far in the future for many of us. The author also breaks down the different elements to consider within retirement planning in a way that is easy to digest and understand. I highly recommend this book.
Thank you NetGalley and the author for providing a free electronic copy of this book for my honest review. Am incredibly grateful.
I have recently retired (not voluntary) so initially it was a bit of a shock and this would have been a really good book to have read. I am now consulting but taking some of the comments and suggestions on board, ready for when I actually do retire. There are pages that are too American and so it would have been really good to have a UK version.
All in all very useful and glad I found it.
I was given a free copy by netgalley and the publishers but the review is entirely my own.
This book is helpful in the sense it is targeted for those in all income brackets who are looking to retire or see what options toward retirement they have. It is broken down into clear steps of topics you need to consider in the order in which they are most productively dealt with and broken down into questions and answers. It's one of the few books that didn't overwhelm or confuse when we got to the assets and 401Ks and 403bs and Social Security. I will definitely be reading through this book and using it again esp. when I am about 2 years from retirement.
Retirement -- or some version of no longer pursuing the job, the raise, the promotion -- looms for millions of us, an unexplored and very daunting territory. In straightforward, clear prose, Anthony Delauney's THE NO-REGRETS RETIREMENT ROADMAP lays out the steps, the thought process, and ways to not only venture into the scary future, but also to thrive in it. I appreciated his complete, no-nonsense approach to the subjects I had no idea needed air, light, and intelligence to make the journey a genuine pleasure. I received an early reader copy of this book and my opinions are my own, unbiased thoughts.
This guide will truly help its readers to have fewer regrets when they retire. It is packed with helpful information and is written in a way that makes those without Econ degrees able to understand it. The use of example couples helps to drive home its points.
This book can be read in any order or used as a reference on particular subjects. I went first to the section on Social Security. The information very much went along with other sources that I have read. This made me feel that the title was reliable.
Included are sections on foundations as for example, your vision. There are then chapters on taxes, protecting your nest egg, finding a financial planner and more.
I recommend this guide to those who want to understand more about retirement considerations, even if retirement is way in the future!
Many thanks to NetGalley and Mascot Books for this helpful guide. All opinions are my own.
