It would be great if we could all retire with a nice portfolio of savings and pension income, without having to worry about paying the bills most retired people pay.

Yet...many retirees are living out their retirement on the breadline without much hope for even going on holiday without being assisted by relatives or even handouts. Don't let yourself be one of them...it's never too late!

Title : Still Here: Embracing Aging, Changing and Dying
Author : Ram Dass
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : A gentle, clear perspective on living all of your life.

Ram Dass has aged, and while thinking about aging, had a massive stroke from which he has recovered his speech. The words are more thoughtful now, clearer. There is an economy which has lead to clarity. Reading this work helps one to see what to hold onto and what to release. There can be joy in where you are, though it is clearly not where you were, once, nor where you thought you would be. This is a gift. In each chapter he reminds us, in a gentle, loving way, to love ourselves. Knowing that he has come back from the stroke, that his body is not going to stop relying on the wheelchair, that there was fear and pain in his experience, all this makes his words ring true. Give yourself this gift. And give it to others.

Title : One World, Ready or Not
Author : Wil Greider
Rating : 1 Stars out of 5.
Summary : An almost complete misunderstanding of economics

Paul Krugman of MIT - one of that rare breed, a serious economist who can write - has famously called this "an astonishingly silly book". I have to disagree: the book is much, much worse than that.

Greider's thesis boils down to the "global excess supply" nostrum - and it's based not only on a fundamental misunderstanding of economics but also on straightforward innumeracy and an inability to think critically. As Keynes tells us, wages reflect the marginal product of labour. Any increased production in the Third World must *go somewhere*, in the form of increased income either to labour (wages) or capital (profits). That increased income must be either spent or saved - so if there really were inadequate aggregate demand (or equivalently excess capacity) then we would expect savings to exceed profitable investment opportunities. Do they? Well, Greider provides no evidence - which is unsurprising....

Greider's economic analysis is thus wrong - indeed, absurd and intellectual disreputable. His policy recommendations derived from his wrong-headed arguments are downright destructive, however. They amount to a recipe for a misallocation of scarce resources to unproductive uses and a hike in inflation. There could be few more damaging courses for the developing world, or surer ways to cut real wages and depress living standards. But then the identity of interest between the far Left (Chomsky, Nader etc.) and the far Right (Pat Buchanan) has never had logic or reason on its side.

Title : 7 Ways to Beat the Pension Crisis
Author : Anthony Vice
Rating : 4 Stars out of 5.
Summary : useful advice

a useful little book that gives an up to date account of the current state of play in the pensions market and how to prepare for a more comfortable future - it's well laid out and easy to follow but there is still an assumption that the reader is not a complete novice when it comes to pensions - could have done with a glossary - the book contains some valuable ideas showing that the traditional weekly or monthly payments into an organised pension scheme is not the only way and that there are other ways of preparing for retirement, even if you have left it a bit late in your working life to plan and save

Title : You've Earned It, Don't Lose It: Mistakes You Can't Afford to Make When You Retire
Author : Suze Orman
Rating : 4 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Must read for anyone concerned with his/her estate.

Superbly written. Easy to read. Explains, in simple terms, trusts, investments, estate taxes, and things you MUST know as long before you approach retirment. Lays out some things you can't afford not to do. Best $10-$15 you ever spent. Could return payment in thousands.

Title : Cashing in on the American Dream: How to Retire at 35
Author : Paul Terhorst
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Fifteen Years Later, They're Still Retired

This book, along with Your Money or Your Life, changed our lives. By following the advice outlined in these two books, we were able to quit our jobs in our forties and pursue other interests. We have been free of the daily grind for over four years now, thanks in part to Paul Terhorst, Vicki Robin and Joe Dominguez (authors of YMOYL).

In a conversational style, Terhorst explains how he realized his job was sapping the life out of him, and how he used his skills as an accountant to devise a plan that would enable him to retire at 39 years of age. Unfortunately, the specific financial advice he gives (invest in high-yield certificates of deposit) is no longer possible. But number-crunching is not the most important message that Terhorst has.

Cashing in on the American Dream advocates a no-nonsense approach to determining just what you want in life. Do you want to be free of working for others? Then it might mean giving up your car and dinners out. But it doesn't have to mean giving up what you really love (or need). Terhorst and his wife, Vicki, have been retired almost twenty years now and have spent much of it traveling the world. They have health insurance abroad, because it's cheaper than U.S. insurance (where we still have no national health insurance), and better.

The Terhorsts have their own website and I like to check in on them once or twice a year. The fact that they have made their plan work all these years is more important than any advice they have. Cashing in on The American Dream is an inspiring book. If they could do it, why can't you?

Title : Rich Dad's Retire Young, Retire Rich: How to Get Rich and Stay Rich Forever! (Rich Dad's Advisors Series)
Author : Robert T. Kiyosaki
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : EXCELLENT!!!!

I have just finished reading this book and it was absolutely fantastic. I must admit that some of it was alittle tough going but stick it out it is well worth it.
I read this book and was left feeling more inspired than I have ever before. It has completely changed my way of thought and I have already started buying the other books to continue learning rich dad's way of thought, anything is possible if you believe it is. I WILL be rich!!

Title : You've Earned It, Don't Lose It: Mistakes You Can't Afford to Make When You Retire
Author : Suze Orman
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Very specific, useful info for BIG retirement decisions.

Orman provides very specific information and advice that you will not find unless you shell out big bucks to a financial advisor. For example, Orman tells you how to take money from your IRA before age 59 1/2 with NO PENALTY (substantially equal periodic payments), but adds VERY IMPORTANT advice on how to structure the portfolio to protect the nest egg. Another example of very specific, useful info includes the chapter on long-term care which gives instuctions on how to determine if you need LTC insurance, how much to buy, when to buy, what kind of company to buy from, etc.

The entire book is filled with this kind of specific info - a "must read" for the "do-it-your-self" personal financial manager.
