Review of Reconfigurement
Relieving history by reading historical fiction and watching history documentaries can give a person a rough idea of how human life expectancy has always been low. An interesting example is that of a medieval king. With numerous battles to conquer and expand one’s dominion, power-thirsty relatives ready to take you down for the throne, and the unsanitary conditions and diseases of the era; it was not uncommon for such kings to die at the age of 30. In the current times, at thirty, one has not completely figured out their lives, they live from paycheck to paycheck or even may not have a job yet. The funny thing is that some jobs in recent eras were too dangerous to consider planning for retirement.
The current world has had many significant technological advancements that have improved healthcare and working conditions, enabling people to live longer and better lives. The only drawback is that people have to work for a couple of years before they retire. Catering for retirement is a long and critical process; when successfully planned for, a person can peacefully enjoy the rest of their life. Not only does E. Alan Fleischauer gives pointers on reconfiguring one’s life, but he also gives the best advice on medical expenses, insurance, and inheritance.
Reconfigurement has a lot of thought-invoking content that hooked me as a younger reader. The author delves into the often misunderstood financial arena and takes it upon himself to explain it in layman’s terms. I must admit that the technicality of the book renders it slightly boring, but this author completely makes up for this feature by including jokes, funny anecdotes, and his own experience. This livens up the book completely. There is a lot of evidence to show that this book has been highly researched; a hallmark of a good writer. There is also a scientific approach to this book due to the presence of tabulations and questions that prompt the reader to make observations and conclusions about their lives.
There are no negative features in Reconfigurement. It is the perfect manual for financial advisors and working individuals enthusiastic about saving money and planning for life’s eventualities.
This book appears to be professionally edited, as there are some little errors present. The book contains a slightly mild form of profanity. I would like to mirror the author’s opinion that this book is better suited for a working class of people who are between the ages between 30 and 50. I rate this book four out of four stars for the above reasons.
