Product Description
Most investors spend too much time trying to outguess the market and not enough time thinking about their long-term financial futures. That?s why today?s retirees (and soon-to-be retirees) need strategies, not stock tips. Nationally recognized Certified Financial Planner, radio talk-show personality, and author Raymond J. Lucia shows you little-known concepts that can fatten your savings and boost your standard of living in retirement. In an easy-to-understand and often humorous style, Lucia details how ideas such as nontraded real estate investment trusts, 72(t) elections, and equity-indexed annuities can give you, the investor, a leg up on the path to retiring in comfort and safety. Lucia brings his 30 years of experience to bear in revealing how and when to tap your retirement plans, ways to use your home as a source of retirement dollars, and how to lower taxes on appreciated company stock. He?ll also explain how investing in low-income housing tax credits can help you tax-wise even as you assist others. Filled with hands-on, in-depth insights and practical advice, this book will give you all the tools you need to win at the retirement game.

  Great logic to avoid running out of money. November 16, 2007 Great logic to avoid running out of money. He has a great radio show too - that is how I found out about his book. Financil planning has been my passion for the last 40 years - and his plan will work.
  Helpful book ! September 30, 2007 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is the follow up to buckets of money. I learned a lot and enjoyed the approach. Some sections will be difficult for new investors to understand.....but stick with it, very good info and it is now one of my new reference books to review and share with others. Thanks Ray

Well written. In-depth analysis of bucket two strategies including annuities and complex trust/insurance alternatives. Recommend reading "Buckets of Money"- author's first book- prior to reading this book.
  Good Book, but.... July 8, 2007 1 out of 8 found this review helpful
Ray pretty much has a one size fits all philosophy. He is simply trying to get his name out there to promote his firm, which is not always known for doing what is best. He hosts a Radio show as well. If you are going to trust a radio guy, then make it Moe Ansari of Marketwrap.
  Ready Set Retire June 26, 2007 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
It was 5 star item for me as I have saved and have < 10 years to retirement. It is easy to read and understand. It is a practical and conservative plan for a secure finacial retirement. You will want other books to cover other aspects of retirement but for a investment plan it is the best I have read.
