Planning Your Retirement Life: Secure Your Future NOW: A Woman's 8-Step Guide to Financial Freedom, Even if You Have No Money, No Time, and Don't Know Where to Start

This is a very important book for everyone, whether you think you ever want to retire, never want to retire, or don't even think about it. Life will continue on, time will continue to pass, and someday you just may find yourself wanting to retire or, like many people, life hits you with a curve ball - divorce, death of your spouse, or merely getting laid off. What I like most about the book is the fact that it covers so many aspects of life, not just the financial, and does a great job of seeking balance. If you're a man (I am), this book is still for you. My wife and I didn't create a spending plan until last year, and it has transformed our lives. We took a program at church which explained spending plans, saving plans, and more, and wow, the freedom we now have! And we found that I actually can retire now (in fact, if we'd done this planning earlier, I would have realized I could have retired at least a few years ago). Again, though, the lessons here go beyond just the finances, but even if you just learn the financial part, you're well ahead of the game! Get the book, start living with purpose and planning, and enjoy every phase of your life!

Though I am years away from retirement, currently in my early thirties, I read this book to broaden my knowledge and make sure I'm doing all that I can to help my future self. I'm so glad I read this. I feel knowledgeable on how to prepare for my retirement and also just more informed in how to strengthen my overall current financial health. This book is packed with terms, definitions, tips, and advice on how to make your wealth grow. I also really appreciated how succinct and to-the-point it was. At the end of each chapter there were summarized action steps that made it easy for me to formulate a plan to make this advice a reality.

S here. Normally T reviews our books... but he said that this was only mine.. so here goes... I dont really think about retirement often... well i do but i don't think of the financial part of it. So this was a very helpful starter to me since I want to not just make T do the work... there was a lot to love in this book... it was easy to understand and definitiely seemed to cover to what I needed to know. I did feel that there were some questions that I still had and though i realize this is a onestop solution I wish i had the answer. so in conclusion. Really great book and definitely helping people plan for the future.

A complex topic delivered in 8 chapters motivates the reader to achieve financial independence and to imagine early retirement. The book is easy to read and focused on the importance of planning and knowing the basics of finance and investment concepts. Besides overviews about health care, estate planning and managing retirement income, it includes valuable reference links, and guides with simple quotes and action steps. The author shares her own experience and statistics to target women, with the ultimate message that you are not alone, but with the right mindset, you can do it.

I loved Amy’s way of explaining both finances and our emotional relationship with why we behave the way we do with our money. The book was a short read but thorough in its clarification of industry jargon. I now feel so much more informed and ready to begin my journey on planning for my future.

I don't really have a lot to say about this book except to say that it has solid advice and has been written really well. The information is pretty solid from what I can see and I have read a couple of these types of books although there wasn't anything that new here the information is easy to understand and digest. The writing is goo and so is the grammar, there are a few tiny errors here and there but nothing to worry about.

This is a very basic introduction to the financial concepts and how to plan for retirement. Some advice is indeed useful if you did t to know basics of personal finance and you are a woman, however once the basics are learned, book does not go in details of what to do.

This book has a lot of great information, about money mindset!

The book is easy to follow, with good examples and practical tips. I like the straightforward language that makes it pleasant to read, yet tought provoking. It's a great starting point and gives many ideas around planning and ideation of future looking retirement.

The advice in this book is only useful or relevant to US citizens, and it shouldn't be marketed internationally. Other countries have totally different banking, pension, health and investment systems.
