Review of Reconfigurement
[Following is a volunteer review of "Reconfigurement" by E. Alan Fleischauer.]
Fleischauer has more than 16 years of experience as a financial counsellor. He believes that the financial sector has succeeded in persuading people to work hard and make as many investments as they can to have respectable savings. There are numerous books available that claim to teach readers how to develop a retirement plan. Some narrate tales of billionaires who overcame challenges to reach their current position. Other books concentrate on doing math and making retirement plans. E. Alan Fleischauer aims to incorporate both of these facets of financial planning in his book Reconfigurement to come up with a solution that works for the majority of people.
Simply said, this book is about forward planning. Even if we hate our jobs, we cannot simply quit without a solid retirement plan. The author advises his readers to rethink their financial strategy and create a backup plan in case something goes wrong. Fleischauer seeks to replace the conventional "numbers-oriented" retirement plan with strategies that take into account the contemporary situation.
This book is best suited for American readers. Though the topic of financial planning is applicable globally, financial policies vary. This book examines current American policies and offers investment tips for readers in the United States. Non-American readers can borrow certain investing ideas from the book, but to come up with appropriate saving plans, they would need to research the laws in their home nations and consult a financial expert.
Despite the serious subject matter of the book, the author has written in an approachable manner to educate his readers. He has sprinkled several jokes and humorous stories to liven up the book. Instead of preaching to his audience, Fleischauer tries to engage them in conversation. He offers encouraging suggestions, offers food for thought, assists readers in understanding their situations, and demonstrates how they can make wise financial decisions.
I had no complaints about the book. Although most of the content did not apply to me as a non-American, I now have a better idea about what my finances should look like. The book is professionally edited. I did not come across any grammatical errors. I rate the book 4 out of 4 stars.
Even though not many people would be interested in this book given the serious topic, it should nonetheless be read. This is a reading that will educate you on a crucial subject. I recommend that American readers who want to start focused investments read the book. The author is confident that readers may apply his ideas to restructure their financial planning at any stage of their lives. So, pick the book up!
