We don't all die from black lung at age 45 anymore, but a whole lot of us are treating our retirement plan like that's our best option. We accept whatever financial advice our local bank teller gives us, and we sign whatever they put in front of us. But what if there are alternatives that the banks don't want you to know about, because they might actually make more money for you than for the bank?

If you are one of the 91 out of 100 people in North America who are afraid that they will outlive their retirement savings, tune in to discover how we are living longer than ever, yet we are retiring earlier than ever, and this newfound longevity is not being factored into our retirement planning. Many investments and retirement accounts are subject to heavy taxation which can be avoided. Accepted money-saving strategies, such as overpayment on your home mortgage, are actually costing us hundreds of thousands of dollars. Our sequence of investment priorities needs to be reversed.

A simple change of strategy can double your retirement savings while saving you from the sting of the taxman. Even across different countries, there are similar strategies that can be followed to maximize investment growth and retirement savings for investors of any age, income, or education level. Whether you are living in the United States, Canada, or other nations with similar opportunities, you can use a parallel sequence to secure your financial future. Young or old, man or woman, country mouse or city mouse, there are financial pathways we all can tread together.

In this simple six-step guide, Paxton S. Finnegan will join you to explore solutions and strategies which can grow investments, transform retirements, and keep the taxman at bay. With humor, common sense, tough love, and cowboy logic, he will show you that fear of retirement deserves to be left in the dust bin of history, along with alchemy and polio.
