It is not uncommon for people to be so engrossed in their jobs that they fail to take note of other important things, like planning for the future. In Reconfigurement, E. Alan Fleischauer discusses planning and preparing for the future, especially retirement. He talked about the importance of planning for retirement and how one could manage to start planning. The author did not hesitate to tell his readers the disadvantages of not planning. Being a financial advisor, he guides his readers with various steps on how to plan. Get a copy of this book to learn how to plan easily.

This book is unique because it tends to tackle some of the important issues ordinarily ignored in society today but have an effect on the future. Before reading this book, I never thought about life after retirement, but this book helped me think about this. I do not want to be depressed or broke after retirement, and the best way to avoid this is to start saving for retirement early.

The author's writing style was conversational, and he did his best to keep the readers' attention. With his experience as a financial advisor, he addresses some common financial difficulties people face daily. He also answered the popular unanswered question of whether entrepreneurs should plan for retirement or keep working even at old age.

I would not say I liked that this author joked at almost every point in this book. I understand that he was trying to lighten up the mood of the readers and sound more cheerful, but I think it was excessive most of the time. Also, considering the targeted audience was older adults, I think the jokes were uncalled for. He repeatedly said, "Yikes." This would make the book look unofficial, and most readers may not take the topic as seriously as it should be.

I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars because it presents answers to many questions and can help people avoid depression and poverty in old age. The editors did an exceptional job editing and proofreading this book because it was exceptionally edited and void of errors.

Every line on every page of this book had a message to pass to the reader. I will read this book again in the future. I recommend this book to adults between the ages of 30 and 50 because they are closer to the retirement age bracket. I also recommend this book to other financial advisors to give their clients good advice.
