This book is full of very sound financial advice. However, it's really for those who are about to retire or are already retired. Please note that the book was written in 2007, just before the financial world changed forever. It would be foolish to think about retirement saving without considering the market volatility that's now a real concern. This book isn't complete without an update that makes it current. I hope the author will listen.

How can a book on retirement finance planning not mention the differences between Traditional IRA and Roth IRA? This book lacks of a big picture view of other aspect of retirement finance planning such as reverse mortgage, estate planning, living trust etc.. I do not recommend this book!

This is a serviceable and easy-to-follow introduction to allocating retirement investments to produce income. The basic messages of this book are that there are no risk-free investments, you must diversify to reduce your risk, and you must do your own "homework" but not hesitate to seek out professional advice. No argument here. Although the advice is heavily weighted towards systematically drawing income from mutual funds, the author does a good job of reviewing a variety of individual investments ...

As an advisor who works with folks near retirement I purchased Live Long, Live Rich as an addition to my library. After reading it I "loaned" it to a client. The next week he told me "I Get It. I now have a better understanding about inflation, and some of the terminolgy you use." Then I had to call him 3 times to get my book back. If you are just starting towards investments or near retirement I would recommend this book. A very small investment in your future.

I purchased this book in the hopes that I would be able to help my father increase his income. He is well into retirement and his income is not keeping up with his expenses. The book was easy to use and finding additional ways to increase his income was easy to do. I recommend this book to anyone who not only wants to increase investment income but needs to help others do so as well.
