"Mutual Funds for the Utterly Confused" (McGraw-HIll, December 2008)

International Foundation of Employee Benefit Plans says "Although this book is lighthearted it presents a serious and basic discussion of retirement planning for individuals and couples. ItŐs full of "What to Ask?" and "What the Experts Say" tips. The book explores the importance of time and retirement philosophy in making a retirement plan. Eight common misunderstandings about retirement planning are also discussed. Younger employees and plan participants will find this book helpful as they navigate the maze of financial advice from those who are older and wiser. (McGraw Hill)
