The road to retirement often has more twists and turns than the country roads of the Ozark Mountains near Springfield, Missouri, the area in which financial advisor Bruce Porter has spent his life. Navigating such a road usually requires additional knowledge, and often no small amount of courage. Here in his first book, Porter addresses many of these retirement-related issues. Among them: creating streams of sustainable income that can last as long as you do; understanding options available under Social Security; understanding the intricacies of Medicare and supplemental insurance coverage; financing possible long-term nursing care; preparing an estate plan. Foremost among the elements of Porter's roadmap to retirement is an emphasis on retirement investment options that emphasize security, protection against loss of invested principal and the potential for growth.

Do you have a "primary care" approach to your finances? Or have you been seeing "specialists": someone who manages your 401(k), someone who helped with your life insurance policies, another person who has talked to you about a will, someone who handles your taxes or, of course, possibly a handful of IRAs scattered at companies behind you? These pieces may be part of your picture for retirement income, but, like not having a primary care physician, a scattered approach could let important pieces fall through the cracks. Author Sam Foreman, president of Generations Financial Group, rounds up a variety of inspirations, from his background in hospital work to his experiences as a financial professional, to demonstrate the whys and hows of taking a "primary care physician" approach to your money. "PCP Approach to Money" is about how today's consumers can take steps toward having a comprehensive, coordinated approach to their retirement income plans.

Imagine that you are an ancient mariner standing on a cliff overlooking the ocean at sunrise. You are staring at the “edge,” the place where the ocean and the sky meet, and wondering, What lies beyond? Your answer would have been “Thar be dragons.” Using this analogy, imagine you are about to retire or have recently retired and wondering, What’s out there? What do I do now? Buy that new sports car, take a long vacation, play golf or fish every day, or try to continue working? What’s going to get me up in the morning, excited to have another day? Is there a purpose for my life? If so, how do I find it? There is a lot of information about the financial and medical aspects of retirement but very little about the emotional and spiritual impacts of retiring. Retirement is a major life transition, which changes everything about how you think about yourself. One day, your identity is defined by what you do for a living; the next day, that identity is gone. You may feel lost, as if “the rug has been pulled out from underneath you.” Who are we now? The good news is this feeling is normal; you are not going crazy. It is part of the normal life cycle. Another piece of good news: using a process known as guided journaling, you will better understand how you got to where you are in your life today and then create your own, personal, “best fit” retirement—one that gets you up every morning, excited for another day to live and serve others, Finding Your Purpose When You Retire
