Men in their 60s today are apt to enjoy considerably longer, healthier retirements than their fathers and grandfathers. Many stand a decent chance of living well into their 80s if not reaching 90, doing so with a modicum of style. Because one's senior years can be a time of promise, renewal, and revitalization the book focuses on the positive possibilities. Many are creating a new definition of retirement. I call it revitalizing. They view themselves as entering an exciting, new phase of life. They want to be active, rather than risk being bored. Many want to make the transition to something new, productive, and creative. There may be second and third careers, or a series of volunteer activities. By offering the four pillars of well-being for men in retirement: existential, emotional, physical, and financial, concisely and in one place, the book provides guideposts for fulfillment. The book will help point the way for your revitalization a new you. It will help design a longevity plan for the life you want to live that goes far beyond the typical money-crunching retirement planning. It reflects the need for a more holistic approach to living in your senior years, integrating ones aspirations, emotional and physical well-being, and concerns about money. You will see how to develop: your existential, emotional, physical, and financial wellness.

As Susan Hirshman sees it, the rules of successful dieting are the same rules that apply to successful money management. In this upbeat and informative guide she offers women a 3-phase personalized plan that follows common dieting programs to help them understand their finances. The structure of the book is consistent with that of a typical diet book - it includes an evaluation phase, an induction phase, and a maintenance regimen. Susan offers specific advice on topics that matter most to women including how to develop realistic and attainable goals, how to make smart financial decisions, how to determine the best way to invest based on a reader's 'investment personality', and how and when to get professional help from a financial advisor all while relating it back to a theme that practically every woman has experienced at least once in her life – dieting!. Susan's program completely removes the intimidation factor that often accompanies the words ‘personal finance' and 'investing' and provides women with all the information they need to take control of their financial situations once and for all.

A practical guide to making better decisions in all aspects of life, based on extensive research and a wide range of historic and current examples. Combining clearly communicated research-based principles, a wealth of practical advice, and dozens of historic and contemporary examples of decision making (good and bad), Patrick Gould's Prudent Decision Making in an Imprudent World: Better Decisions at Home and Work gives readers a fresh new way to look at the way we make choices. What makes Gould's book both authoritative and compelling is its distinctive foundation—prospect theory—derived from Amos Tversky and Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman's landmark research on "neuro-economic" decision making. Through the prism of prospect theory—which explains why people make conservative decisions in some instances and reckless decisions in others—Gould provides practical pathways to sound, timely judgments about relationships, family matters, careers, finances, and more. Time and again, throughout this concise but richly rewarding book, Gould demonstrates that understanding how and why people make choices is the first step toward making the best possible choices for ourselves.
