About this listen

Even though half of all Americans put money aside for retirement, it isn't until they reach their 60s that many realize that they haven't saved enough. With The Five Years Before You Retire, you'll hone in on what you need to do in the next five years to maximize your current savings and create a realistic plan for your future. This book guides you through each financial, medical, and familial decision, from taking advantage of the employer match your company offers for your 401(k) program to enrolling in Medicare to discussing housing options with your family. Covering every aspect of retirement planning, these straightforward strategies explain in detail how you can make the most of your last few years in the workforce and prepare for the future you've always wanted.

Whether you just started devising a plan or have been saving since your first job, The Five Years Before You Retire will show you what you need to do now to ensure that you live comfortably for years to come.

I like the rational and methodical nature of the presentation. I'm actually 75 years old and listening to retirement books primarily to consider investment strategies. so the detailed information about social security options and healthcare we're not a particular interest to me but still worth reviewing my awareness of them. the resources for investing and other issues are very good. and the life advice regarding planning what my retirement would be ideally and budgeting for it are also very useful.

good overview of retirement issues

Yes this kind of material is kind of dry because, well it is. Still the author and the reader do a good job of getting their message across. This book has some of the most useful and most specific steps outlined clearly for the years leading up to retirement. That makes it very useful. Enough so that even with the supplementary material provided I went out and bought the hard copy book to have the checklists to refer to and make notes with.

Very valuable in the 5 (or more) ur.s before R.

An eye opener in a topic not taught or explained in school/college. It will change the way you look at retirement (or even F.I.R.E.)
