Ignoring retirement age when planning is a big problem every third person faces, which often makes one suffer and struggle in their old age. E. Alan Fleischauer offers clues about successive strategies in his work 'Reconfigurement', saying that great steps are best taken as an integral part of the continuous plan for a stable future.

Reconfigurement is the work of Fleischauer, which examines the aspect of retirement planning that we often forget and shows its outcomes when we do not think of financial preparedness. Being the target audience ensured that he focused on the struggles that individuals often encounter upon entering retirement without proper planning and practical approaches. The book spans diverse financial dimensions, involving budgeting for savings, investments, and insurance, and lays emphasis on the capacity building of readers to control their future finances.

Nothing impressed me more than the nuances of Fleischauer's proficiency and the way in which he asserts his detailed understanding of finance. Also, the way the author combined front-line information with jokes was fantastic and kept me not only minded but also entertained. Through attention to the inclusion of reflective questions and external resources, the readings provide different ways to incorporate the new knowledge into our daily lives.

The writing and editing in the book are very good, though unfortunately, some readers may find themselves swimming in a sea of financial terminology for which they'll need to go back and revisit some sections for clarity. Even so, the book is overall a very enjoyable read. I found no errors in this book. It was well edited by the author.

I give Reconfigurement 5 out of 5 stars. I have no reason to deduct a star from this book. Thanks to its vital content, an engaging presentation, and the absence of any explicit content. With great incentive, I recommend it not only to young, financially literate men and women but also to middle-aged people who are looking to try out some new responsible spending methods.

Your review highlights the importance of being proactive in managing one's finances for a secure future. It is very easy to ignore the subject of retirement when it's thirty years away, but not doing any planning can lead to struggles and suffering in old age. I enjoyed your summary of the book. It is novel that a numbers-minded person like E. Alan Fleischauer injected humor into what could otherwise be a tedious chore to read.

I have seen well to do person turn poor after retirement because they lack savings and have to get by their merger pension which they use to support their family. So this book is a step in the right direction.
