Throughout our working years my wife and I have attempted to plan for our retirement. We’ve reached out to professionals for guidance and researched on our own hoping that we were making wise decisions. But as our retirement years are drawing near we’ve realized that most professionals seem to share only enough about retirement planning to convince you to buy a product. There are so many retirement topics that no one out there is teaching in an unbiased way. Thankfully we found this book. Hans explains everything in simple English with many easy to understand examples. This book is worth many more times what we paid. We now clearly understand what we need to do to be fully prepared for retirement.

It provided a calmness and sense of purpose, as well as a blue print for success, in an otherwise overwhelming time of upheaval and total confusion.
