A worthwhile read sound principles
This book tells a story of an individual that is contemplating how best to manage his retirement resources. All of us will face this at some point in our lives, and this book is an easy way to start to get a handle on some important considerations.
To be sure, the book is not intended to be just an entertaining read. But what fascinated me was how you will can see yourself and your family and friends in the various characters of this story because they are well-grounded in real life.
I think of myself as fairly advanced in financial management, but I unexpectedly picked up some insights that have already changed some of my planning strategies! At the same time, I have encouraged my wife and teenaged children (who have never worried about such things) to read this book as well because it is an excellent way for them to get an understanding of financial planning principles.
