The Essential Retirement Guide by Frederick Vettese Pdf

Retirement planning is difficult enough without having to contend with misinformation. Unfortunately, much of the advice that is dispensed is either unsubstantiated or betrays a strong vested interest. In The Essential Retirement Guide, Frederick Vettese analyses the most fundamental questions of retirement planning and offers some startling insights. The book finds, for example that: Saving 10 percent a year is not a bad rule of thumb if you could follow it, but there will be times when you cannot do so and it might not even be advisable to try. Most people never spend more than 50 percent of their gross income on themselves before retirement; hence their retirement income target is usually much less than 70 percent. Interest rates will almost certainly stay low for the next 20 years, which will affect how much you need to save. Even in this low-interest environment, you can withdraw 5 percent or more of your retirement savings each year in retirement without running out of money. Your spending in retirement will almost certainly decline at a certain age so you may not need to save quite as much as you think. As people reach the later stages of retirement, they become less capable of managing their finances, even though they grow more confident of their ability to do so! Plan for this before it is too late. Annuities have become very expensive, but they still make sense for a host of reasons. In addition, The Essential Retirement Guide shows how you can estimate your own lifespan and helps you to understand the financial implications of long-term care. Most importantly, it reveals how you can calculate your personal wealth target - the amount of money you will need by the time you retire to live comfortably. The author uses his actuarial expertise to substantiate his findings but does so in a jargon-free way.

As COVID-19 rocks the economy in an unprecedented black swan event, retirees and those who are preparing to retire need answers to pressing questions about their financial futures. Originally published in 2018, the second edition of Retirement Income for Life, has been completely revised and updated, and now includes: New chapters on early retirement, retiring single, what to do when one spouse dies young, and more. Three strategies for mitigating your personal financial risk in the current downturn in equities and other investment products. Advice on how to plan for (and even benefit from) the coming bear market, resulting from COVID-19, which will create unprecedented equity buying opportunities, possibly as early as 2021. Information on the impact of unbearably low interest rates on annuities and fixed income investments and what to do if you hold them. The reasons retirees should be deferring CPP until age 70 and why the case for this is stronger than ever. Author Frederick Vettese demystifies a complex and often frightening subject and provides practical, actionable advice based on five enhancements the reader can make to mitigate risk and secure their financial future. With over one thousand Canadians turning 65 every day, the cultivation of good decumulation practices — the way in which you draw down assets in retirement, ideally to have a secure income for the rest of your life — has become an urgent matter that no one can afford to ignore.

Essential Retirement Planning for Solo Agers by Sara Zeff Geber Pdf

A practical yet humorous guide to aging solo gracefully and achieving a happy retirement. In Essential Retirement Planning for Solo Agers, certified retirement coach Sara Zeff Geber coins the term “Solo Ager” to refer to the segment of society that either does not have adult children or is single and believes they will be on their own as they grow older. This book explores the path ahead for this group. That includes choices in housing, relationships, legal arrangements, finances, and more. Geber reviews the role of adult children in an aging parent’s world and suggests ways in which Solo Agers can mitigate the absence of adult children by relationship building and rigorous planning for their future. Geber shares her expertise on what constitutes a fulfilling older life and how Solo Agers can maximize their opportunities for financial security, physical health, meaning and purpose in the second half of life, and, finally, planning for the end game. Through real-life stories and anecdotes, the author explores housing choices, relationships, and building a support system. You will learn about: · different levels of care and independence in various types of living arrangements · how to initiate discussions among friends and relatives about end-of-life treatment · “what if” scenarios · who to talk to about legal and financial decisions And it’s not just the Solo Ager that can learn from this book. Financial advisors, elder law and estate attorneys, senior care managers, and others whose clientele is on the far side of sixty will benefit as well.

The Essential Steps to a Rich Retirement by Dennis J. Dunn Pdf

Retirement Guide for Teachers, Professors, and Academic Administrators is an easy-to-follow, commonsense approach to retirement planning. Its practical, clear steps are basic building blocks for the future for people of any age and any profession, but Dr. Dennis J. Dunn has specifically tailored the book for teachers and others involved in the educational profession. Nonetheless, it is a general guide, which helps anyone with his or her retirement plans and dreams. It is a serious book, but it tries occasionally to be humorous by discussing the mistakes, pitfalls, and misinterpretations of retirement planning of a fictional character that Dr. Dunn created (Mr. Schitnihil), who appears whimsically at the end of each step or section to describe his experience, to offer advice, or to tell a joke or story--all for the purpose of serving as an example of what not to do. The book is divided into five chapters. The first chapter outlines the assumptions of the retirement guide. The second chapter discusses the preparatory steps that should be in place to develop an effective retirement approach and, ultimately, an enjoyable retirement. The third chapter takes up the strategies that young people should develop to prepare for retirement. The fourth chapter looks at the strategies for older persons. Naturally there is some overlap between chapters three and four. Chapter five explores the world of retirement: what to do and where to go. The end of the book has sections on additional reading and worksheets. Individuals are different, and their circumstances vary. The strategies that are described in this retirement guide are really only suggestions. Individuals can pick and choose from among them. In some cases, the steps are not dependent upon one another and thus can and often do stand alone, so it is not necessary to try to pursue all the listed approaches. In other cases, they are very much interrelated. For example, the guide stresses that saving is important. That activity can stand alone. The book also emphasizes that investing is critical, but it cautions that good investment is dependent upon prior study and research in order to ensure that your investment is protected and produces a profitable return. Retirement can be a joy and an opportunity to do what you have always wanted to try, from traveling to painting to gardening to golfing to singing to writing poetry. Plan properly and retirement will be the best time of your life. Failure to plan or to plan poorly will likely lead to disappointment and dependency. This books provides practical advice on retirement planning. It is based upon experience and it offers counsel to those who are just starting out in their profession, who are mid-way through their careers, who are on the verge of retiring, and, finally, who have retired. It is a wonderful, humorous primer that will introduce you to the world of an enjoyable retirement.

The Canadian Retirement Guide by Jill O'Donnell,Graham McWaters,John A. Page Pdf

People over 65 years old constitute the fastest growing segment of the Canadian population. By 2011, as the first baby boomers turn 65, seven million Canadians will be senior citizens. And by 2041 it is estimated nearly one in four Canadians will be over 65. The aging population will radically change society as individuals face the challenges of growing older, caring for parents and often times for children still at home. As our life spans increase so do our options for how we will spend our later years. However, this large group of elders is facing a crisis. Many have made few if any plans for retirement. Without clear goals, plans to support dependants and means of paying for financial commitments, in addition to increasing health risks, retirement could be a time of misery and uncertainty.
