Making your money last in retirement

WHOSE JOB IS IT?

Why are we here, and what can we do about it? Good questions and these questions do have an answer. Now if you ever believed anything you had better believe you will not hear our system give you the answers I am about to give you. I say this because what I am going to tell you does not require some top heavy, resource guzzling bureaucracy prospering at your expense.

Health care is eroding, retirement funds are terminating, Social Security will not even support your eating expenses, gas prices are climbing, our schools are in chaos, and Government ethics are exposed as being of the lowest order. We have thirty-five million Americans at, or below the poverty level, and American children are starving to death. Our historical approach has been to throw money at this, and hope it will go away. If your nation does not value you, it comes to pass you do not value yourself. We take this in stride as if we are marionettes waiting for our strings to be yanked.

You, and your family's future is your responsibility, and any other path will lead right back to the situation where we currently find ourselves. If you truly want a workable solution then read on. I warn you I am going to say some very controversial things, and you must get through these things, intact, before you will be handed a solution, so simple and logical you will be amazed. Two-hundred, and thirty years of the S.O.S., and I submit it is time for a new paradigm. One that shall forever, care for you and your family's well-being. I will go out on a limb, and claim that what I will say is the way it should have always been, and it is time to make it that way now.
