This is a guidebook packed with the best strategies to manage wealth in retirement, helping readers live the life they have always envisioned - without risk of running out of money. With decades of experience as a financial consultant, Erin Botsford shows readers how to identify their preferred lifestyle and sustain it throughout retirement. With the philosophy that money allows choices, she shows readers how to become informed, wise investors - avoiding common pitfalls, challenging the status quo, and refusing to take advice blindly. No one wants to run out of money before they run out of time, and Botsford helps restore confidence in members of the Baby-Boom generation who may have lost assets during the financial crisis. With a thorough examination of the transition into retirement, she addresses common concerns such as Do I have enough money to last a lifetime? What about my spouse and children? Will Social Security be there when I am eligible to receive it? And what about Medicare, health insurance? From a chapter titled Economics 101 to detailed analyses of market patterns, the author exposes the failures inherent in traditional methods of asset allocation. With comprehensive explanations of investment strategies, she helps readers adopt a new philosophy about their finances and retirement planning in order to protect their hard-earned money.

INTRODUCTION What comes to mind when you think about retirement Playing golf - photo 4
INTRODUCTION

What comes to mind when you think about retirement? Playing golf three days a week? Having a home at the beach? Traveling with your grandchildren? Starting a new business? Building water wells in Africa?

Unfortunately, if you are like many people these days, thinking about retirement might make you want to reach for an antacidor something stronger. Maybe you cant forget about how the lives of retired friends and family members changed overnight when the markets crashed in September 2008. After years of hard work and careful savingpoof! Like a bad magic trick, their money disappeared before their eyes. And now you are shaking in your boots, worried that the same thing might happen to you.

The truth is, they didnt have to lose their ability to enjoy their lifestyle. Thats why Im writing this book. Though I wish I had a magic wand I could wave and restore the savings and chosen lifestyles of those who lost so much, thats not reality. What I can do is help you not only avoid similar calamity but also become wiser and learn to protect and sustain your lifestyle throughout retirement.

What has become incredibly clear to me in the last decade, particularly since September 2008, is that peoples confidence in just about everything has been shattered. As a member myself of the baby boom generation, I can relate to every bit of shakiness that comes with a lack of certainty about the future. I think you will agree that, more than anything, we all want to be assured that we will not run out of money before we take our last breath. Almost equally important, we would like to know that we will not become a burden to our children or to society. As retirees, or pre-retirees getting ready to exit the workplace, we cant help but ask ourselves, Do I have enough money? Will it last my lifetime? What about my spouse? My children? Is there a chance I will be forced to go back to work? Will Social Security be there when I am eligible to receive it? What about Medicare? Will my pension survive and continue to pay me? These are all incredibly important questions and ones I am sure you have asked yourself. Though I may not be able to answer these questions for you individually, I feel certain I can help you answer some of them for yourself.

I had one specific goal in mind when I decided to write this book: to restore the lost confidence among the retiree and pre-retiree crowd. Its no fun working for forty or fifty years, becoming an expert in your field, and then having no faith in your ability to sustain your lifestyle throughout your retirement. I want to show you that if you rethink how you make your investment decisions and adopt a new philosophy about money you can regain some of your lost confidence. I believe you can have the retirement you have always dreamed about. But I also believe many people will not be able to live that dream if they dont make some major shifts in the way they think about their money and how they manage their investments.

Unfortunately, many people are still investing the same way they have for the past thirty or forty years, not realizing how significantly the world of investing has changed. The old methods clearly wont work anymore, but many people have no idea what will work. The overwhelming majority of retirement planning and investing is still done with the premise that the stock and/or bond markets will always go up over the long term. But the two most important questions to ask are these: is that always true, and how long is long term? History shows us multiple decades in which this premise has not been the case. If someone is unfortunate enough to retire when the market goes flat or during a protracted down market, he or she faces the real risk of running out of money.

With this book I hope to show you an entirely new way to think about money, investing, and retirement planning. I am going to shatter the myths of Wall Street, which serve their purposes but could be disastrous to you and your retirement well-being. I will expose the failures inherent in traditional methods of retirement planning, and I will give you a new way to think about money and investing, a concept I have created over the last two decades called Lifestyle Driven Investing. You will quickly see how easy it is and how much it can take the guesswork out of investing for retirement.
