Reviews:

"It's easy to see why Mr. Solin's approach makes sense."
--The New York Times

"Read this book and take action. The difference will all be in your pocket."
--Syndicated columnist Scott Burns

"(The Smartest 401(k) Book You'll Ever Read is) one of the most valuable financial planning books (for) 2008"
--The Wall Street Journal

"Reading this book is smart. Solin's previous entries in this series were clever, breezy guides to navigating through the financial morass without getting hurt... This new book gets into the basics of investment in context with the present economic scene, so reading the earlier volumes doesn't mean that you won't get anything out of this one.

...Solin casts his wise eye and sharp pen on other important subjects like reverse mortgages, age of social security distribution, prenuptial agreements for seniors, options and implications of delaying retirement...The best thing that Solin brings to the party is his shrewd and skeptical approach to the art and science of investing. ...there's no question that his focus is on what's best for individuals, not institutions.

Throughout, Solin writes clearly with style and humor but stays on topic and doesn't bloviate or pontificate excessively. He includes a number of charts and other tools to figure out what to do with your money so it grows into the amount you will need to live on for the rest of your days."
