Retire Inspired

by Chris Hogan

Hogan's retirement book in the Ramsey tradition: dream in detail, calculate the number, invest fifteen percent in growth funds, avoid debt and work with a professional. It is motivational and clear, light on investment detail.

Three things you will actually use

  1. Retirement is a number, not an age.
  2. Fifteen percent, consistently, in growth.
  3. Dream specifically; vague dreams are not funded.

Do this first

Write what a week of your retirement looks like, then estimate what it costs annually.

Our verdict

Clear, motivational, basic.
