| If you are in doubt about asset allocation investing, read Paul Merriman, David Swensen and John Bogle. Too many cummulative years of experience and knowledge here to ignore. If you can only read one, I recommend Merriman's Live It Up... |

| The book is Very Good. However, I received a 2005 edition. The current edition is 2008. The later is edition has research that is more current. I returned the book and kept the new one I had purchased at B & N. |
Title is misleading - great book

| When I read the title to this book, the first thing I thought was "sounds to good to be true". But to my surprise, the book has a tremendous amount of actionable information. I've read 10+ books on asset allocations and investing during retirement and this is by far the most complete. My only complaint is the hardsell on mutual funds by one particular company. But this was only done in a couple of chapters and does not diminish the vast majority of the books contents. |

| The most complete book for understanding the whats and hows of retirement planning and investing for retirement. Complete with data to support the ideas the author presents. |

One of the best references on the subject of retirement & Investing I have read so far. Step by step method for securing income during retirement. Intruduces a number of strategies Investors don't want you to know about. I have recommended this book to several of my friends who are also close to retirement. For those close to retirement, it should be front and center in their libraries. A lot of facts backing up recommendations. Short read.
