Excellent but not current

This was an excellent book and gave me a very good understanding of distributions rules prior to January 1, 2001; however, the laws have since changed and I would not buy this book today. Much of the rules explained here are still the same, but you would have to know the material you are supposedly buying this book to learn in order to know the difference. If a new edition came out, I would buy it.

Excellent Information

As always with Seymour Goldberg, the information is outstanding. I don't like the question and answer format, which I feel is an inefficient way to convey information, but others might love it. It is very difficult to acquire comprehensive information on IRA distributions and this is a very good source.

Must reading for an IRA owner turning 70 this year

Seynour Goldberg takes the reader though all the intricicies of a complicated subject and provides the information necessary to make an informed decision. The pluses and minuses of single vs joint life expectancy and term certain vs recalculation are clearly defined for the IRA owner who must make decisions regarding required minimum distributions upon reaching 70 1/2 years of age.
