Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Clients nearing retirement have some significant challenges to face. And so do their advisers. They can expect to live far longer after they retire. And the problems they expect their advisers to solve are far more complex. The traditional sources of retirement income may be shriveling, but boomers don't intend to downsize their plans. Instead, they're redefining what it means to be retired—as well as what they require of financial advisers. Planners who aren’t prepared will be left behind. Those who are will step up to some lucrative and challenging work.

To help get the work done, Harold Evensky and Deena Katz—both veteran problem solvers—have tapped the talents of a range of experts whose breakthrough thinking offers solutions to even the thorniest issues in retirement-income planning:
  • Sustainable withdrawals
  • Longevity risk
  • Eliminating luck as a factor in planning
  • Immediate annuities, reverse mortgages, and viatical and life settlements
  • Strategies for increasing retirement cash flow


In Retirement Income Redesigned, the most-respected names in the industry discuss these issues and a range of others.



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Among the best currently available for withdrawal stage
When I retired 10 years ago I was faced with surviving on an essentially self-managed traditional IRA and Social Security. I had/have a financial planner, but have found most of the profession (except those perhaps affordable by only the very wealthy - I've no experience of them) almost as in the dark about the withdrawal stage as I was. I ended up doing an intensive year of self-education in order to vet the advice I was getting. Still, both I & the planner made some mistakes, but the IRA survived ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - for informed retirees, too
Although this collection of articles is aimed at financial advisers, informed individuals who wish their own, independent, sophisticated information regarding income from investments during retirement should find this book extremely useful. The article on Monte Carlo simulations is worth the price of the book. This is by far the most valuable and informative book on retirement income I've found.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best single book on distribution phase of life
Wow, I have read over 200 books about investing.....but never have I seen such a collection of valuable information about the distribution phase of investing in one book.

Twenty-five different authors contribute their own chapters covering about every aspect of the distribution phase.

I have heard both Evensky and Katz speak at the Chicago Financial Advisor Symposium, and they are both long time practitioners in the financial planning industry.

Of today's Americans ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Retirement Income Redesigned: Master Plans
The book is a series of articles by different authors. It is only appropriate for professionals or trained amateurs in the field. Quality is uneven. The best is the editors one article which is worth the price of the collection.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Practical Advice for a Control Freak
I found this collection of essays helpful in securing a better understanding of the implications of portfolio decumulation strategies in early retirement. The essays are written for the practitioner and hence are easier to understand than much of the recent academic literature. I will recommend this book to my CFA.
