When you finish this book you realize there are many options and alternatives to have the lifestyle and retirement that works for you. It is a practical, hands-on book that cuts through all the clutter. Not only do I have a better understanding of the retirement planning process, I also have renewed hope, energy, and optimism that I can reach my retir ement goals in 7 years or less.
D.J. Richoux, Business Owner Vancouver, Canada

When I hit the 7 Questions it was like 20 years of investment advice came together. You had me hooked, and the rest of the book was a page turner that I couldnt put down. By the end I realized I could ret ire now if I really wanted to 22 years earlier than co nventional retirement planning.
Dan Cosgrove, CEO Mercantile Systems, Inc.

Before reading How Much Money Do I Need To Retire? I naively thought this question had a simple answer. Now I understand the many variables that can affect the answer and have a broader view of what retirement can actually look like if you think outside the box. The clarity I got from reading Todds Three Rule System gave me a simplified concept of retirement that actually makes more sense than trying to factor in so many unforese en and unpredictable variables.
Lisa Cary Hawaii

This is a great book to get you thinking. The first half helps define the basic concepts while the second half helps even the expert work out real numbers and come up with good workable projections By applying some of the non-conventional methods in this book you may even be able to retire soone r than you think.
Tim McMahon, Editor InflationData.Com

Your information cuts through the usual hype, misinformation, and general rip-off artists who disguise themselves as financial planners. You are the first one who has given me an honest appraisal and understanding of this subject. Kudos to you!
Don Hazzard Hawaii

The information in this book provides the best and most comprehensive answer to the How Much Do I Need To Retire question that Ive ever read.

My Simple Three Rule System That Allowed Me To Retire At Age 35

Make everything as simple as possible, but not simpler.
Albert Einstein

Financial information is just like Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Too much. Too complicated. Too confusing. It is seldom just right.

Too Short: The Internet is filled with sound-bite-length half-truths forcing you to waste hours searching repetitive and contradictory articles to uncover the whole truth.

Too Long: The bookstores are filled with hundred-page tomes padded with fluff chapters like A Brief History of the Financial Markets and What Is a Stock? when all you need is 10 pages of concrete ideas you can put to use.

Too Simple: The financial content mills produce reams of articles for magazines and web sites written by professional writers who arent financial experts and lack practical experience.

Too Complicated: Academic journals have great research, but its written in an inaccessible style using financial geek-speak so that only a trained expert can decipher the encrypted meaning.

These problems are why I wrote the 60 Minute Financial Solutions series of books .

E ach book provides a concise, definitive answer to an essential financial question that yo u will inevitably confront on your pa th to financial security. Each book is a one-stop solution to a single financial issue so you learn exactly what you need to know, when you need to know it.

What you get with each book is the distillation of everything that is valid and the elimination of everything that is not. The goal is to simplify without oversimplifying so you can make an independent, intelligent, and appropriate financial decisionin about 60 minutes.

Best of all, these books are written by a genuine financial expert. I was trained as an economist and Ive published in the academic world. I also refined my practical knowledge as a hedge fund investment manager for more than a decade with 100% winning years (except one small loss of less than 3%). I now work as an educator coaching people just like you to achieve their financial goals.
