Product Description
The guide readers need to retire richerfrom the international bestselling author of The Smartest Investment Book Youll Ever Read.
In this thought-provoking and innovative new book, bestselling author Daniel R. Solin takes issue with the commonly held belief that participating in defined contribution retirement plans is a no-brainer because of the employer match.
While providing readers with comprehensive, accessible information on the most common deferred compensation plans, annuities, and other retirement-based investments, he shows the 70 million participants currently in those plans how to create the best portfolio with often limited options.
In his straight-forward, no-nonsense style, Solin offers the new rules for investing for retirement and shows readers how to quickly and simply determine their own needs, get control of their assets, avoid scams and sucker bets, discover untapped resources at retirement, and eventually get income out of tax deferred plansthe smart way.

 401(k) Book September 6, 2008
I have only scanned the book, but have not yet had a chance to read it. So far, it looks quite good.
 Great Book August 21, 2008
"The Smartest 401(k) Book You'll Ever Read", is a top notch book on investing. The author believes that investing should be simple, and he presents the basics of investing in a simple manner that is easily understood.
Solin warns readers that Wall Street and the insurance industry are siphoning off money from our 401(k) and 403(b) retirement accounts. Though Mr. Solin does explain how this happens, he also explains practical easy steps we can take to minimize the impact.
If you want to learn how to achieve financial independence years earlier, "The Smartest 401(k) Book You'll Ever Read" is for you. It will give you sensible advice that is simple to follow.

The title is very clever; the book, however, less than par. There are a few good points in the book which could be summed up in much fewer pages.
Basically, here's the summary of the book:
1.) Passively managed, commission free (or low commission) index funds perform much better (and have, historically) than hyper-actively managed, high commission funds.
2.) Diversification is key. Some good recommendations in book on suggested funds to have to achieve proper diversification, based on risk tolerance.
3.) The Roth IRA dominates. Open one if you're eligible.
4.) The majority of 403(b) plans suck, because most are involved in some fashion with annuities. If yours sucks, speak up or get screwed.
I might have missed a few things, but my FREE review is probably pretty close to the NOT FREE book I bought, and hopefully you're smart enough to avoid.
The Smartest 401(k) Book You'll Ever Read August 15, 2008
The book gave very good advise for long term investing, and ways to reduce the fees charged by various investment companies. I gave each of my three children (young adults) a copy of the book so they can start securing their retirement funds.
