Non-Fiction Pick of the Week: The Boomers Retire

The Boomers Retire: a guide for financial advisors and their clients by Lynn Biscott 2008

There are more than four million Canadians over the age of 65, and the proportion of seniors is expected to double in the next quarter century. Financial planning expert Lynn Biscott describes tax-effective strategies to maximize revenue from government benefits, employer pensions, personal savings, and employment income. This book was easy to read, and effectively demystified her subject for the relatively unsavvy as well as those with more knowledge of tax strategies and retirement planning.
