5.0 out of 5 stars Audio Book: Great content but mismatched voice talent is disappointing
Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2021
Remember when George Carlin narrated Thomas The Tank Engine? That was a pretty unlikely match, but it worked. In this case Mr. Rogers reading Retirement Reality Check was a complete disaster. The soft spoken man reading this trove of information, seemingly has no command of the information being presented, and was unable to put inflection, or emphasis where appropriate. I struggled to remain fully attentive to the excellent material, but the dull delivery caused my eyelids to close and my car to drift onto the shoulder. I repeatedly found myself hearing a key concept like "volatility buffer" and have to rewind to see what I missed. I will probably try again from the beginning with a full cup of coffee, but ultimately I will have to buy the book so that as I read, I can hear Josh's voice in my head, which is what they should have done for this audio book; it needed to be read by the author. To be clear, the content was great, and will make a great reference tool when making your own plan, or to create talking points with your financial planner.

Josh Jalinski really explains in this book that Retirement planning is a personal strategy NOT a 'system'.
For decades we have been feed the same old system from carbon copy financial advisors.
Now Josh explains his get to know you approach that can get us all to retire comfortably, on our terms!!
He lays out his great strategies that can secure our future, remove the dread and fear and make sure we enjoy our retirement.
He warned about a reset to the economy, in this decade, and wow was he right.
Read this book!! Its an easy read, Josh writes as if he is talking directly to you.

This was a great book to read for anyone in retirement who doesn’t understand all the options and challenges that occur when you retire and have to make financial decisions!

It was a good read and well worth the cost of the book. I give it 5 “STARS” !

Great read. Really drove home the advantages of cash value life insurance and annuities. Most people want to drag those products because of the word of investment advisors who benefit from people not buying them and rather investing their assets with them.
