Retirement Planning at 40 and Beyond

Simple Guide to Take Control of Your Future, Your Finances, Your Investments, and Your Time in Retirement to the Next Level in 30 Days

By Richard Holt

Discover how to secure your future so you can live a comfortable life in retirement without depending on your loved ones

Are you wondering how much you need to save monthly to prepare for your retirement?

Have you thought about what else you can do to secure your future aside from contributing to your 401k?

Do you want to know how to build different sources of passive income so you can live comfortably later in life?

As you get closer and closer to your retirement, it’s normal to have concerns about how ready you are for it. You may be worried that your pension might not be enough for you to live a decent life when you retire.

You might be considering the possibility that you may not be able to retire when you want because you can’t afford to. Maybe you haven’t even begun to save for retirement and have absolutely no idea where to start.

If you’re feeling clueless, confused, and concerned about your upcoming retirement, you’re not alone. According to Northwestern Mutual’s Planning and Progress Study, 56 percent of Americans don’t know how much they need to retire, and as a result, many are vastly unprepared for it. Fortunately, there’s still time for you to prepare for a fruitful and comfortable retirement…and all it takes is a bit of planning. As Benjamin Franklin once said, “If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail.”

Retirement planning is not just about creating your employer-funded pension plan. It’s a multifaceted approach that involves saving, investing, lowering expenses, minimizing taxes, and more. This guide will give you detailed steps and strategies to plan for your retirement. And don’t worry, it’s not complicated at all.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Great book

If like me, you’ve got to 40 and not been able to afford to put more money into retirement planning, then this book is great to give you some ideas of how you can save more. I am now in a position where I can save more but have had no idea what route to take or how to go about it.

This book has been great to get me started and give me some ideas on how I can save more for retirement. It’s super easy to follow and aimed at beginners to investment

Brilliant!

I find many books on retirement planning very nebulous and detached from my life. I thought this book would be one of those but I was positively surprised. I especially loved the chapter on optimizing your portfolio. I have started implementing some of the things I learnt here. This book is a true gem.

very useful and practical

Very straightforward and free of complicated financial jargon. Richard's retirement plan intrigued me a lot. I must admit that my planning was lacking. Richard has emphasised that it is never too late to make good preparations and has offered helpful investing advice for the future. Richard developed this book out of compassion and genuine worry about becoming older and how to make the best plans for the future. Deffo recommend!

Take control of your retirement

I haven't got to 40 yet, but I would like to make sure that I have all my ducks in a row when it comes to have a solid financial base upon retirement. I liked that the audiobook was aimed at those without lots of investment knowledge. There was lots of practical advice that was easy to understand. I will use this information combained with other sources to help plan my retirement in the future.

A practical, approachable guide

I've felt intimidated about retirement planning for years, which has caused me to take almost no action toward saving for it. I finally decided this was the year to get serious, and happened upon this book. The information presented is actionable, clear, and approachable. I learned a lot about what I can do to secure my future now, and how to make good investment choices that will provide for me later. I also appreciated the advice on how to cut expenses and maximize my savings. I highly recommend this book to anyone in the same boat.

Just what I needed!

Yes, I am over 40 and thinking a bit more about retirement now with all that is going on. This book is excellent in really laying out the things that need to be considered, the simple, but not always easy things we can do, the considerations that need to be thought through. I am really pleased I got this book and I will be trying to implement as much of this as possible as I move forward and look forward to a comfortable and secure retirement!

Packed with useful information and insights

I've given this 4 stars because it's focused on US so some of it doesn't apply to UK. Nevertheless there is enough info that's applicable to make this worth listening to. The book covers the possible pitfalls in a realistic but not totally depressing way.

Future sailors

We want to think that retirement will be a paradise of luxury and relaxation but we don't typically want to think about how our money now is going to make or break that dream. It was only recently that my folks retired and could see how their investments in real estate decades ago have paid off in the form of a holiday unit, sailboat, and a few bells and whistles for it. The housing market as it is for almost everyone right now, is a tough situation to get a foothold in and only made me want to find other ways to secure my ideal and comfortable future. This book has helped me find those paths and in a way that is clear and easy to follow. I am well on my way to achieving this by the time I retire because of this book. I would highly recommend this to anyone of any age who wants to have a happy and secure retirement, it's never too late to add a little more to the kitty.
