How many of us have stuck our heads in the sand thinking we are too busy, too stretched financially, too caught up with the moment to put our retirement planning much higher on the agenda? And with consistent bad news about banks and pension providers where do we begin and who can we really trust?
In his book Plan Now, Retire Happy: How to Secure Your Future, Whatever the Economic Climate: Planning Your Dream Retirement, Alvin Hall offers plenty of excellent advice. And he is well placed to offer it as he is a self made man. Having grown up on a subsistence farm in rural Florida, he got his degree and began his career on Wall Street.
Now he heads a successful training company for financial services institutions throughout the world. He is also a successful author, television presenter and financial planning guru. He is a man who speaks sense and became more widely known from his BBC series Investing For All With Alvin Hall, and Alvin Hall's Guide to Successful Investing, as well as Your Money Or Your Life. He appears regularly on GMTV.
Alvin's book is an easy to follow, step-by-step guide to pensions and building financial security. He separates the myths from the realities and shows how a little planning and action today will empower you tomorrow. From the very first step of visualising your retirement, to creating a sound and flexible investment plan that allows you to make the most of your money – whatever your circumstances.
Plan Now, Retire Happy is a useful guide for anyone wanting a happy future. Whether for yourself or your children and whatever your retirement dreams. This book is the first step to achieving them.
