Imagine how it would feel if you could sail through your retirement years, confident you’d done all you could do to have a worry-free income for life, regardless of the economic storms ahead. Imagine the peace of mind you’d have as you turn 65, 70, 85, and beyond, if you knew your money was working as hard as you did during your working years, so you’d have an inflation-protected income for as long as you live.
If I could show you how to create a portfolio that would turn those imaginings into reality, would you be willing to spend a few hours learning how to do it?
I’m betting you would—and it’s my belief that you deserve to stop worrying about your future so you can go out and enjoy your retirement. That’s why I’ve created a step-by-step approach to investing your money when it’s time to retire, so you can create what I call an All-Weather Retirement Portfolio.
Of course, I can’t give you an absolute, 100% guarantee. Nobody can. What I can do is show you how to maximize your probability of success, using the best research available along with my hard-won experience, applied to historical financial scenarios to evaluate what you’re likely to experience during your retirement years. I promise you I’ve done my homework, and then some. If you choose to apply the strategy I’ve developed, you’ll know you’ve done everything you can to protect your financial future against unexpected events you may encounter during your retirement years; you’ll have given yourself the best possible opportunity to have a comfortable income for the rest of your days.
After reading this book, you will know how to create your own All-Weather Retirement Portfolio based on strategies that have been prudently and thoroughly researched by the best investment minds in the country, as well as leaders in academia. I believe you will find these strategies understandable, comforting, and rewarding. If you take time to learn how they work—and why they work—you can let go of your concerns about the bad economy or the latest financial catastrophe. Those bouts of stormy weather will come and go, but you’ll be able to rest easy knowing your income will remain steady for the rest of your life.
You probably already know a thing or two about investing. Chances are you’ve been putting money into your retirement fund for a while. But things change once you start taking money out. If you’ve already retired or you’re about to retire—and even if you’d like to begin drawing an income from your portfolio a few years before your retirement—this book has the solid information you need to take care of your money now…and for as long as you need it.
At first blush, this may seem like many other investment books. You and I both know there are plenty of them out there. There are books about getting high returns or about getting rich quick. There are books about timing the market or finding the hot stocks. This book is not like any of those. This one is about having a worry-free income for life. It’s about making sure you’ve done all you can to give yourself the best possible opportunity to have a comfortable income for life, even if you encounter a perfect financial storm during your retirement years. You will have maximized your probabilities of success. As my dad would say, when you’ve done all you can do, you can rest your head in peace.
