dshort.com: Rule Your Retirement

Do you have a plan?
October 1, 2009

Trial Subscription The lead article in the latest Rule Your Retirement newsletter, published today, is entitled "Get a Plan." RYR leader Robert Brokamp, a Certified Financial Planner, explains the five steps in sound retirement planning, and he introduces a new feature on the RYR website available to subscribers. It's a comprehensive set of resources on the following:

Examples of Financial Plans
Creating Your Own Financial Statements
How to Choose Your Financial Goals
Making a Financial Plan Inventory

In addition to the lead article, the newsletter's Wealth Defense section explains how to protect your principal with a fixed-income ladder. The monthly Expert Corner is an interview with Barry Ritholtz on the Bear Market and how we got here. The Asset Focus section is devoted to small-cap stocks. And Follow the Money offers Amanda Kish's thoughts on investing in financials.

As regular visitors to this website know, I've been a frequent contributor to the Motley Fool Rule Your Retirement subscription service, and I routinely "stroll" the RYR discussion boards as TMFDoug.

Like many blogs, my dshort.com website has context-sensitive ads controlled by third parties. Rule Your Retirement is the exception. It has my full endorsement. If retirement planning is a topic you want to know more about, consider a 30-day free trial.
