Retirement Income Redesigned: Master Plans for Distribution --
An Adviser's Guide for Funding Boomers' Best Years Hardcover – April 1, 2006
by Harold Evensky (Editor),
Deena B. Katz (Editor), Walter Updegrave (Foreword)
I had a chance to plow through this recently. 2006 already seems like long ago but the issues are
still fresh. This is not a review just a
mention. I am mentioning it because I
have read about a million finance books and quite a few on retirement. Mass market books on retirement all kinda look the same and
their table of contents are more or less interchangeable. This one is different and I liked it. It is targeted to advisers and it shows. The book
is less of a book and more of an anthology of essays by leading practitioners
and researchers on a wide array of important topics related to solving the almost unsolvable retirement problem.
And they don't shy away from hard topics and quantitative analysis, which I appreciate. Contributors include: William Bengen, Laurence Booth, Joel Bruckenstein, Rick Carey, April Caudil,
Harold Evensky, Matthew Greenwald, Michael Henkel, Roger Ibbotsen, Deena Katz ,
Moshe Milevsky, Jim Otar, and others. Worth
a look for non-advisors that like a deep dive. You'll come away with a pretty good appreciation of how hard the problem really is.
