Retirement Planning for Couples by Phoenix Read

Retirment planning

How to plan for your financial retirement with your partner - even if you are starting late?

Have you been worried about your finances when you and your partner eventually retire?
Maybe you have been thinking about how you would cope when you finally retire?
Do you absolutely have no clue how to start, or perhaps you gave up at some point?

Planning your finances can be sometimes daunting - it becomes even more challenging if it’s your retirement you need to plan for, and you have to do it as a couple.

This book aims to intentionally cover the gap in the market for materials that cover financial planning for couples as against what we have that basically talks about individuals. It further bolsters how couples can minimize costs and maximize their wealth if they work together. With many years of research and unraveling secrets of lifetime income maximization and a passion for family wealth management, Phoenix Read bears his mind and offered loads of helpful support, tools, and information on how couples can overcome these obstacles.

In this book, Phoenix lets it all out. You will learn how to get started on your financial retirement plans.
