Beyond Wealth

A "good quick read", that looks not only at the financial aspects of retirement, but the personal issues as well. Goes beyond the usual mentality of a total focus on wealth accumulation and asks important questions of the reader in terms of what do you want to do with your money when you finally do retire? Most retirees ultimately find that one can only fish or play so much golf, and for a time may find themselves questioning whether retirement is everything they thought it would be. This book teaches the reader to look, not just at finances, but at the total picture, and to develop a "Life Goals" system in order to help achieve a smooth financial and personal transition to a fulfilling retirement experience.

"Beyond Wealth" will help you live a fuller life

Beyond Wealth is different from other financial planning books because it focuses on fulfilling personal values and life goals rather than a "get rich quick" approach. True "wealth" is not simply having lots of money, but being able to harmonize wealth and personal values to achieve happiness in all personal dimensions including family, health, education, leisure, and financial security. Beyond Wealth describes a process called "Life Goals Evaluation" that focuses on the role of life goals identification, planning, and finding the balance between wealth and happiness. The book contains 21 chapters in 3 sections. Part One introduces "Life Goals Planning". Part Two analyses the components of "Financial Success". Part 3 discusses "Realizing Goals". The authors employ a questionnaire approach to help readers evaluate their values and goals which serve as the basis for financial planning. Beyond Wealth will not help you rationalize working 80 hour weeks to maximize your wealth or "get rich quick". It is much more thoughtful and useful than that. It will help you live a fuller life by better aligning your values, goals, and financial activities.
