Review

Throughout the book, Chris Hogan makes many topics more relatable by tying them into many interesting stores from his life, and the lives of others he met through his experiences as a financial counselor. Some of these stories are kind of predictable, but some of them do very well at relaying the message that regardless of your age, you can’t ignore the importance of starting your retirement planning NOW. Retirement doesn’t have to mean not working anymore. It means not having to work. And all of us want to get there. So this book made me define so much of what I want for myself, my family as I head into retirement, whatever age that may be.

This is not a book that you get from the library or borrow from a friend. This is a buy book. Because you’ll need it at multiple stages of your life. You’ll need to adjust along the way. You’ll need to start young, and continue as you get older.

This will change your mindset about saving, about spending, about age, and so much more.

Thoughtful, practical advice on how to craft your retirement dream, get your finances in order, plan for retirement, and leaving an estate behind. Chris Hogan explains complicated concepts in a conversational tone and with helpful anecdotes. Even as someone still at the beginning of his working life, I understand the value of planning ahead and how to logistically set myself up for success at an early age. Definitely an inspiring and recommended read for anyone needing to get the ball rolling on retirement planning at any age.
