Answers to your 10 most urgent retirement questions from our two no-nonsense experts.
Ellen McGirt and Andy Serwer
William Shakespeare nailed the retirement thing, buying a country house for cash, then living off his investments until he died. When we went on the Internet to ask readers what they wanted from retirement, we found people wanted what he had - a secure stream of income (and to avoid the plague).
There's the rub: Satisfying these simple desires requires complex decisions. We want to help. Here are the ten questions that came up most often- and our answers.
1. How much will I need in retirement?
Ellen McGirt: The conventional wisdom is that you'll typically need 70 percent to 85 percent of your working income. But there is no one-size-fits-all answer. First, you need to consider what kind of retirement you want - and be realistic about what your resources are. Some late-blooming boomers have considerable debt; others have notions of retirement - say, that dream trip to Antarctica - that are, frankly, damned expensive.
Drew Tignanelli, a CPA and financial planner from Maryland who manages $120 million, doesn't start with a number. "I've had clients retire happily on 50 percent of their salary and others who couldn't make it on anything less than 120 percent," he says. Instead, he encourages his clients to bring their dreams into focus first and work backward from there.
"Give me as much detail as you can about your goals, when you want to retire, where and how you want to live, and what you want to leave behind." It's a complex financial stew, requiring his clients to make tough decisions on spending, saving, and risk. And the calculations need to be adjusted as times, needs, and assets change.

How the Financial Crisis Was Built Into the System

How did we get into the current financial mess? Great question.
Turmoil in the Making
In 1910, seven men held a secret meeting on Jekyll Island off the coast of Georgia. It's estimated that those seven men represented one-sixth of the world's wealth. Six were Americans representing J.P. Morgan, John D. Rockefeller, and the U.S. government. One was a European representing the Rothschilds and Warburgs.
In 1913, the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank was created as a direct result of that secret meeting. Interestingly, the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank isn't federal, there are no reserves, and it's not a bank. Those seven men, some American and some European, created this new entity, commonly referred to as the Fed, to take control of the banking system and the money supply of the United States.
In 1944, a meeting in Bretton Woods, N.H., led to the creation of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank. While the stated purposes for the two new organizations initially sounded admirable, the IMF and the World Bank were created to do to the world what the Federal Reserve Bank does to the United States.
In 1971, President Richard Nixon signed an executive order declaring that the United States no longer had to redeem its paper dollars for gold. With that, the first phase of the takeover of the world banking system and money supply was complete.
In 2008, the world is in economic turmoil. The rich are getting richer, but most people are becoming poorer. Much of this turmoil is directly related to those meetings that took place decades ago. In other words, much of this turmoil is by design.
Power and Domination
Some people say these events are part of a grand conspiracy, and that might well be. Some people say they represent the struggle between capitalists, communists and socialists, and that might be, too.
I personally don't participate in the debate over a possible global conspiracy; it's a waste of time. To me, the wider struggle is for power and domination. And while this struggle has done a lot of good - and a lot of bad - I just want to know how to avoid becoming its victim. I see no reason to be a mouse trying to stop a herd of elephants from fighting.
Currently, many people are suffering due to high oil price, the slowdown in the economy, loss of jobs, declines in home values, increased bankruptcies and businesses closings, savings being wiped out, the plummeting stock market, and rising inflation. These realities are all direct results of this financial power struggle, and millions of people are its victims today.
An Extreme Example
I was in South Africa in July of this year. During my television and radio interviews there, I was often asked my opinion on the world economy. Speaking bluntly, I said that South Africans had a better opportunity of comprehending the global turmoil because they're neighbors to Zimbabwe, a country run by Robert Mugabe.
In my interviews, I said, "What Mugabe has done to Zimbabwe, the Federal Reserve Bank and the IMF are doing to the world." Obviously, my statements disturbed many of the journalists. I did my best to comfort them and assure them I was not an anarchist. I explained, as best I could, that Zimbabwe was an extreme example of an out of control power struggle.
After they were assured I was only using Zimbabwe to illustrate my point, I said, "If you want to understand the world economy, take a refugee from Zimbabwe to lunch." I advised them to ask the refugee these questions:
1. How fast did the economy turn?
2. When did you know that you were in financial trouble?
3. When did you finally decide to leave Zimbabwe?
4. If you could do things differently, what would you have done?
Three Approaches to a Crumbling Economy
I spoke to three young couples from Zimbabwe while I was in South Africa. Two couples were recent refugees now living in South Africa, and one couple still lives in Zimbabwe. All three couples had interesting stories to tell.
One couple said that they would have quit their jobs earlier. Instead, they hung on, hoping the economy would change. Then, virtually overnight, the value of the Zimbabwean dollar dropped and inflation went through the roof. Even though they received pay raises, the couple couldn't survive and soon depleted their savings. They left Zimbabwe by car with almost nothing. If they could've done something differently, they told me, they would have started a business in Zimbabwe and began exporting products to South Africa, so that they would have had South African currency and a bank account there before they fled.
The second couple that fled the country said they saved money and paid off their house and other debts even as the Zimbabwean dollar fell in value. Looking back, they say they would've saved nothing and gotten deeply in debt in Zimbabwe, allowing them to pay off their debt with the cheaper dollars. Instead, they fled after they lost their jobs, leaving behind their house and owning $200,000 in nearly worthless Zimbabwean dollars.
The third couple still lives in Zimbabwe. When they saw the writing on the wall, they set up a business in South Africa and, with the profits, began acquiring tangible assets in Zimbabwe. Often, they'll buy an asset in Zimbabwe and pay the seller in South African currency. They believe that once Mugabe is gone and order is restored, they'll be in a strong financial position.
Many Problems, Few Solutions
There are three major problems with the events of 1913, 1944, and 1971. The first is that the Fed, the World Bank, and the IMF are allowed to create money out of nothing. This is the primary cause of global inflation. Global inflation devalues our work and our savings by raising the prices of necessities.
For example, when gas prices soared, many people said that the price of oil was going up. In reality, the main cause of the high price of oil is the decreasing value of the dollar. The Fed, the World Bank, and the IMF, like Zimbabwe, are mass-producing funny money, thereby increasing prices and devaluing our quality of life.
The second problem is that our economic crises are getting bigger. In the 1970s, the Fed faced and solved million-dollar crises. In the 1980s, it was billion-dollar crises. Today, we have trillion-dollar crises. Unfortunately, these bigger crises mean more funny money entering the system.
Apocalypse Soon
The third problem is that in 1913, the Fed only protected the large commercial banks such as Bank of America. After 1944, the Fed, the World Bank, and the IMF began bailing out Third World nations such as Tanzania and Mexico. Then, in 2008, the Fed began bailing out investment banks such as Bear Sterns, and its role in the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac debacle is well known. By 2020, the biggest of bailout of all will probably occur: Social Security and Medicare, which will cost at least a $100 trillion.
Even if we find more oil and produce more food, prices will continue to rise because the value of the dollar will continue to decline. The dollar has lost over 90 percent of its value since the Fed was created. The U.S. dollar will continue to decline because of those seven men on Jekyll Island in 1910.
Granted, the funny-money system has done a lot of good - it has improved the world and made a lot of people rich. But it's also done a lot of bad. I believe somewhere between today and 2020, the system will break. We're on the eve of financial destruction, and that's why it's in gold I trust. I'd rather be a victor than a victim.

10 Steps to Retire a Millionaire
|
Discover What Is The Perfect Business According to Robert Kiyosaki of Rich Dad Poor Dad Click this now to the Perfect Global Business Video |
|
Having a million-dollar portfolio is a retirement dream for many people. Making that dream come true requires some serious effort.
While success is never a sure thing, the 10 steps outlined below will go a long way toward helping you achieve your objective.
1. Set the Goal
Nobody plans to fail, but plenty of people fail to plan. It's a cliché, but it's true. "Plan" is the leading self-help advice from athletes, business moguls and everyday people who have achieved extraordinary goals.
2. Start Saving
If you don't save, you'll never reach your goal. As obvious as this might seems, far too many people never even start to save. If your employer offers a 401(k) plan, enrolling in the plan is a great way to put your savings on autopilot. Simply sign up for the plan and contributions will be automatically taken out of your paycheck, increasing your savings and decreasing your immediate tax liability.
If your employer offers to match your contributions up to a certain percentage, be sure to contribute enough to get the full match. It's like getting a guaranteed return on your investment. Finding the cash to stash may be a challenge, particularly when you're young, but don't let that stop you from pursuing future riches.
3. Get Aggressive
Studies have shown that the majority of the returns generated by an investment are dictated by the asset-allocation decision. If you are looking to grow your wealth over time, fixed-income investments aren't likely to get the job done, and inflation can take a big chunk out of your savings.
Investing in equities entails more risk, but is also statistically likely to lead to greater returns. For many of us, it's a risk we have to take if want to see our wealth grow. Asset-allocation strategies can help you learn how to make picking the right mix of securities the core of your investing strategy.
4. Prepare for Rainy Days
Part of long-term planning involves accepting the idea that setbacks will occur. If you are not prepared, these setbacks can put a stop to your savings efforts. While you can't avoid all of the bumps in the road, you can prepare in advance to mitigate the damage they can do.
5. Save More
Your income should rise as time passes. You'll get raises, you'll change jobs, and maybe you'll get married and become a two-income family. Every time more cash comes in to your pocket, you should increase the amount that you save. The key to reaching your goal as quickly as possible is to save as much as you can.
6. Watch Your Spending
Vacations, car, kids and all of life's other expenses take a big chunk out of your paycheck. To maximize your savings, you need to minimize your spending. Buying a home you can afford and living a lifestyle that is below your means and not funded by credit cards are all necessities if you want to boost your savings.
7. Monitor Your Portfolio
There's no need to obsess over every movement of the Dow. Instead, check your portfolio once a year. Rebalance your asset allocation to keep on track with your plan.
8. Max Out Your Options
Take advantage of every savings opportunity that comes your way. Make the maximum contribution to tax-deferred savings plans and then open up a taxable account too. Don't let any chance to save get away.
9. Catch-Up Contributions
When you reach age50, you are eligible to increase contributions to tax-deferred savings plans. Take advantage of this opportunity!
10. Have Patience
"Get-rich-quick" schemes are usually just that - schemes. The power of compounding takes time, so invest early, invest often and accept that the road to riches is often long and slow. With that in mind, the sooner you get started, the better your odds of achieving your goals.
The Reality Of Retirement
Retirement might seem far away, but it when it arrives nobody ever complains about having too much money. Some people even question whether a million dollars is enough.
That said, with lots of planning and discipline, you can reach your retirement goals and live a comfortable life after work.

5 Tips On How To Get Good Credit
|
Discover What Is The Perfect Business According to Robert Kiyosaki of Rich Dad Poor Dad Click this now to the Perfect Global Business Video |
|
People continue to struggle to pay their bills and debt each month. It can take a lot out of them if they don't have all of the funds to do it. When this happens, their credit suffers. Their credit report doesn't look good, and their credit score is low. This makes it hard for them to get some of the best deals as far as interest rates on credit cards, loans and mortgages. However, there are ways with credit repair that they can get good credit.
Let's look at 5 tips that you and others can get good credit:
It's very important that you know how even small things can affect your credit report and credit score. Using these tips can help you in your credit repair to get good credit.
Joseph FeRoss is one of the leading experts on credit repair and provides great credit repair services. Visit MSI Credit at http://www.msicredit.com
Let's look at 5 tips that you and others can get good credit:
- Implement a consistent payment pattern. Create a spending plan and set aside monies to pay on your debts each month. Try to pay more than the minimum payment. This credit repair strategy can help you get back on track. Work on paying your balance in full every month. Eventually, you will have paid off large balances because of the way you structured your spending plan.
- Make timely payments. Credit repair should involve people making their monthly payments on time. This shows up on your credit report. It can also reflect your credit report if you're not timely. If you can, make payments prior to the due date. At least you would have gotten them out of the way. Making timely payments is a significant part of your credit score.
- If you have to use credit cards, limit it to a few (no more than three). They should be the major ones (Visa, MasterCard, etc.) Having more than that can affect your credit score. Continue to pay on them every month in a timely manner. This is definitely an important part of credit repair. As you continue to make timely payments, your credit situation and score will improve. When this happens, look out for companies bombarding you with credit card offers.
- Having a lot of outstanding debt is a no-no. You will not have good credit nor will you have a good credit score with a lot of debt hanging over you. In this process of credit repair, you will need to get rid of some of them by paying them off. If they are loans of a small amount, get rid of those first. You don't want to have any outstanding and excessive debt affecting your credit situation.
- Another part of credit repair includes not having a lot of credit inquiries on your report. Sometimes there are people that will get desperate because they want more credit. So they fill out a lot of credit cards to see which companies will offer them credit cards. One place where this goes on a lot is on college campuses. The companies know that college students are easy prey for credit card applications. You can limit the number of inquiries on your credit report. Too many of them can seriously affect your credit score. Just continue to work with the credit cards that you already have.
It's very important that you know how even small things can affect your credit report and credit score. Using these tips can help you in your credit repair to get good credit.
