Review of Reconfigurement
Posted: 15 May 2023, 14:03
[Following is a volunteer review of "Reconfigurement" by E. Alan Fleischauer.]
Reconfigurement by E. Alan Fleischauer is a book that teaches us how to prepare for retirement. In this book, Fleischauer shows us how to choose careers that match our personalities. He also teaches us about budgeting, investment, insurance, and a lot more.
The book has an interactive tone while it educates us about many things. Therefore, when reading it, one does not feel as though one is reading a school textbook. Rather, it feels like one is having a casual chat with the author. This is my favourite thing about this book.
I like how there are little jokes after every segment of the book. My favourite jokes are the ones about the Mathematics class and the 'Lawyer and the Wife'.
To me, the topic of financial planning is boring and difficult to grasp. Therefore, I appreciate how the author kept the language in this book simple and easy. This made the contents very easy for me to understand. I am still quite surprised that I found this book a lot more interesting than I expected.
I appreciate the amazing editing because it made my reading easy. For all these reasons, I give this book five out of five stars. I do not dislike anything about the book.
However, there is one thing I might change. A different title might make the book more appealing to prospective readers. If it is possible, perhaps the author could change the title to something that reflects the lighthearted and fun nature of the book.
I recommend this book to anyone who is close to retirement age and needs to plan for it. It is also beneficial to those who are younger and know very little about financial planning. The book is written primarily for those in America. Therefore, those who do not live there might be unable to relate. Still, if interested, anyone will find this book beneficial.
