I did not find much useful information in this book. It doesn't add enough to what is already out there on the subject. I was disappointed because I expected the author might have something new to add based on a a post-2008 "quantitative-easing" investment environment. Nope! In my opinion, better books with more specific useful advice for investors: 7twelve: A Diversified Investment Portfolio with a Plan by Craig L. Israelsen (2010) Yes, You Can Still Retire Comfortably by Ben Stein & Phil DeMuth ( I did not find much useful information in this book.

When I began reading this book, I thought that it would be more strategy based. I quickly realized I was wrong. McCarthy put more of an educational twist on this book. Rather then the normal, how to make millions,it was much more based on how to grow your money until the day you die. McCarthy talks about the proper ways to invest your money to make it last, than how to make it fast. With the uncertainly of our economy, this book is a must read in my opinion. In the end, its not about what you hav When I began reading this book, I thought that it would be more strategy based. I quickly realized I was wrong.
