This review is from: Plan Smart, Retire Rich (Hardcover)

I having read this book, I found it to contain a wealth of practical financial strategies. This book contains information of great use for everyone, both those in and out of the financial planning field. It was of great use to me in developing a financial plan specifically tailored to my situation. I am just thirty and this book provided me a paved road map of how to achieve financial security with limited risk. What more could one look for in a book?

I highly recommend this book and its upcoming revisions.
