It’s taken some time but I finally finished it. My FREE Report on “What if You Retired in 2000?” is my personal attempt to try and found out how a $1M nest egg would have performed under four different scenarios from 2000 to 2007.

It taught me a lot about how money works in retirement. I was shocked at how hard it was to get back money lost in the Dotcom crash whilst taking a pension.

The Report includes my detailed analysis of four scenarios and includes the spreadsheets from which the report is draw. The spreadsheet can be downloaded and used by Baby Boomers to learn for themselves the lesson of avoiding large losses in retirement as well as several other useful lessons.

What I believe makes my report different is it is from a Baby Boomer perspective and includes real S&P 500 Market returns from 2000 to 2007 as well as real inflation rates. The results using these real figures are compared to the financial industry favorites of long term average market returns and assumed inflation rates.

The results may shock you. But I would prefer that you use it as a spur to action to get control of your nest egg. (click on the picture to download the FREE Report)

The Wealth Management industry use a well known cliche “If you fail to plan, you can plan to fail” to help try and sell their investment products. The vultures are circling because figures show 77 Million Baby Boomers control around $40 Billion. Its too good to miss. Here is a quote from an article on Insurance Journals web site.

It is when we are in retirement our nest eggs are most vulnerable because we may no longer have a source of income to replenish it should it suffer large losses as with the current “Sub-Prime” situation. That in itself is a major problem but what exacerbates it is if we take a pension when our nest egg has suffered losses. For example taking a pension of 4% can be considered similar to the Stock Market dropping by a further 4%. Either way there is 4% less funds to invest to grow or maintain your nest egg.

But the problem doesn’t stop there. There are several other issues that can eat your nest egg whether the Stock market is going up or down. These are the things that can really damage your nest egg over the long term.

I hope you find the information in the FREE Report as revealing as I have and, I hope it will spur you on to protect your nest egg now.

The full eBook is ready and will be available on 1st April 2008 - April Fools Day ;0)
