Dear Friend,

I'd like to ask you a question...

Do you think “ordinary working folks” can still create real wealth, financial independence, and security in America through smart planning?

The truth is, we must because we are going to be 100% RESPONSIBLE for how well (or badly) we live in our “golden years”!

Social Security may not exist at all... everywhere we hear about its demise. But, in my opinion, it CERTAINLY will not exist like it does now.

By the time you and I are ready for it, benefits will probably be “downsized”, and with taxes there is just no way it will be able to provide even poverty-level income!

Medicare could also become a dinosaur or have its benefits severely limited.

The days of expecting the government to take care of us are over!

Corporate pensions aren’t all that reliable either anymore, as we have seen in recent years. A company can be a giant one day and bankrupt the next!

Then there are the mergers and acquisitions.

Dare you wager that your employer will be there to take care of you for 20, 30, or even 40 years after you retire?

And even if you say “Yes”, will that be enough to make the “golden third” of your life really golden?

You undoubtedly have things you are looking forward to doing: traveling…starting a small business…going back to school…moving to a new part of the country…buying a boat and fishing…whatever.

All these things TAKE MONEY!!

My message to you is about actions you can take NOW to make your lifetime financial position as strong as possible.

The SHOCKING TRUTH about “RETIREMENT” in America reveals that fewer than 5% of all adults reaching age 65, after 40 or more years of work have sufficient savings and investments to actually retire and continue their standard of living. (SSA)

The other 95% have to give up their homes and move into smaller homes or apartments or even move in with their kids; they can’t travel and virtually have no spending money; they live as “we can’t afford it” prisoners. Or they must keep working, often in minimum wage jobs right along side teenagers!

And the one thing these 95%’ers have in common is they never thought they’d wind up like this!

And we live a lot longer, which actually makes the problem WORSE!

So, the smart question you should be asking yourself is:

“HOW CAN I ACT NOW TO MAKE SURE I'M IN THE 5% GROUP... NOT IN THE 95% GROUP?”

Hot Topic: Historic Stimulus Strives to Spur Economy

In an attempt to address the nation's ongoing economic challenges, Congress has passed and the president has signed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. The $787 billion package is remarkable not only in its scale and scope but in the speed of its passage as well.

Time for Forecasts

Economic forecasting is an important part of business, but the future is elusive. Forecasts have limitations that should be considered when making investment decisions.
