More Description

This book serves as a personal reflection on the author's journey to fiscal fitness and as a guide for those looking to do the same and prepare for a comfortable retirement. It provides guidelines for how individuals can determine how much money they will need - or desire - in retirement, necessary actions associated with retirement planning, behaviors that should be adopted in pursuit of fiscal fitness, provides the requisite tools, and highlights various personal finance philosophies. Additionally, it provides some guidelines for funding various retirement accounts. This book is not an attempt to sell any product or service, nor does it suggest that there is an easy path to acquiring wealth and preparing for a comfortable retirement. There is no magic bullet. While the reader will find recommendations for fund types, they will not find any recommendations for specific stocks or mutual funds, as the reader will have to perform detailed research on their own to determine which underlying investments should make up their retirement accounts. Just like achieving and maintaining physical health requires a detailed plan, committed effort, and focus, so does achieving and maintaining fiscal health.
