About this title

From the Publisher:

Americans are now living longer, in many cases 20 to 30 years after retirement. Investing in their future has never been more urgent. Yet many don't know how to invest for these later years--or worse, think they're doing fine, when in reality they are woefully under-prepared. Now there's a book that confidently addresses this number one fear: The 17 Laws of Successful Investing: Ignore Them at Your Own Risk, by veteran investment consultant Richard Rodman, CFS, CPC. Through his company, Tax Relief investments, Inc., he has helped thousands of people from virtually every income bracket learn and prosper with simple, proven investment laws. Through clear tables, humorous illustrations and engaging text, this book shows how the ability to save--coupled with good investment practices and multiplied by time--offers a proven path to wealth. In precise, lively language, the concise chapters take readers step-by-step through crafting a systematic investment plan, choosing the right vehicles for diversification, the pros and cons of stocks versus mutual funds, choosing the right financial professional, and which retirement plan is best. The book also covers in detail various ways to defer taxes and how they affect earnings, dollar cost averaging, asset allocation strategies, and why the U.S. economy is a sound source of investing, even through crises.

From the Author:

If there is one false perception I have witnessed time and again in almost three decades of assisting people financially, it is this: people generally believe that investing and creating wealth are harder and more mysterious than they are. This is the reason for this book. In order to demystify this subject, I recommend working with a compatible investment professional who can add the time, training, and temperament needed for success. If you can work effectively as a team, much of the mystery is eliminated once you get to the essence of how certain investments and cash flow systems help you achieve the lifestyle you desire.

It has been my observation that there are three major goals we seek to meet financially in our lifetime: 1. Education of children 2. Retirement 3. Specific, major wants or desires (from weddings to yachts)

If this book can help solve at least one of the above for at least one person, it will have served its purpose. I sincerely hope you enjoy the journey to and the destination of financial independence!
