In this hard-hitting new book, personal finance expert Gordon Pape zeroes in on the realities of retirement that confront Canadians, including collapsing pension plans, a tax system that works against us, pitiful savings rates, and the fact that there are no "safe" investments. What lies ahead is a series of wrenching changes to our retirement system as governments and corporations struggle to cope with a tidal wave of harsh economic, demographic, and social realities. But it is not all doom and gloom if you take control of your money now!
With his trademark take-action advice, Pape helps you to understand the realities of retirement and offers practical solutions for protecting your family's future in a rapidly changing world. If you want to ensure that you have enough money for retirement, Pape's approach to finance will teach you how to create a financial plan that works, pay off debt (and stay debt free), invest wisely, understand your pension plan, minimize taxes, and more.
In these lean times, Retirement's Harsh New Realities is a must-read for all Canadians. Take control and learn how to protect your future.

Gordon Pape Strikes Again,
By
This review is from: Retirement's Harsh New Realities: Protecting Your Money in a Changing World (Paperback)
I have been a Gordon Pape follower for quite a few years, and have purchased several of his books. This one does a great job of introducing folks to the "New Canada"...a much harsher and colder place that we are used to...and it looks like global pressure is going to continue to force us to be nastier and nastier with our retired seniors.As a person who is already retired, I purchased it mostly for my kids....but In AM finding a few gems for myself, too. Worth the purchase price.

A good review of retirement and your options,

This review is from: Retirement's Harsh New Realities: Protecting Your Money in a Changing World (Paperback)
I have read many of Pape's books and this one is similar, a good conservative review of investment options for retirement. I would have liked more details on etf's, but he does give lots of general information. There was nothing startling in this book so if you are well read on the subject maybe skip it, but otherwise it helps you get some answers and allows you to form more questions for your advisor.
