Why did you write this book?
Posted on August 1, 2017

I found no good answers to the questions of How Much is Safe to Spend and How Do I Invest now that I’m retired. Too few retirees can answer those questions. Oh, this game of Spend and Invest is sure different from the game of Save and Invest that we all have played for years. But the answers for Spend and Invest are tractable, and retirement can be better if we know the answers. My friend Larry asks, “Do we ever stop worrying?” And I argue the answer clearly is, “YES.” It’s a much happier retirement when we are worry free and can focus on “What’s the next fun thing to do,” and, typically, later in the Iyear, “Who’s going to benefit from our increased giving this year. And how much.” For Patti and me, giving now has been most rewarding: we can see we are helping those we love, in particular. Basically, I hope this book makes you happier, too. You can read more on this topic here and here.
