review 1: As other reviews have mentioned, the book is fairly quick to read and provides an interesting perspective on retirement planning. The book focuses heavily on benefits of investing into tax free retirement plans. Sadly, I found the final third of the book to be quite annoying as it turns into a marketing pitch for life insurance. While this may be beneficial for some people, I disliked how the book preached on how everyone should be investing into these plans without a comparison of the benefits. This book has not changed my retirement plans.
review 2: This book offered and interesting and in depth look into using life insurance as an investment tool. I certainly feel more educated about money and the way my retirement accounts will work in the distribution pha
... morese, which was my aim. I didn't particularly care for the way the book was written. He spends a lot of time giving background information (which was very informative and useful, I'm glad he did) but then keeps saying "just wait till the end of the book when I tell you my investment strategy" but won't tell you what it is. It feels like he's hiding something or the product is gimmicky. If this book didn't come recommended to me by someone in the industry who I trust I probably wouldn't have kept reading. So, I'm recommending the book because of how much I learned. Just know that the strategy is life insurance and it's easy to be frustrated while he plays salesman. In the end I felt like the information was fair and balanced. This strategy isn't for everyone and he doesn't try to make it seem that way. less
