WHAT CAN THIS BOOK DO FOR YOU?
Retirement today is dynamic – Americans are more active and live longer. Being retired is not static or a “one and done” proposition. There is no magical number which promises “happily ever after” retirement bliss – Not if you want confidence and peace of mind.
Author, Jeff Ingersoll, exposes various Wall Street myths and how traditional methods of investing during your retirement accumulation years may not work through your retirement distribution years. He also offers an entirely new way to think about money, investing and retirement planning strategies called the Comfort Zone®.
“If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always got.”

RAVE REVIEWS
The Accumulation Myth addresses the retirement issue in a clear and precise manner, helping the reader understand how to prepare for that day when our regular income stops and our investments take over. This book helped me realize many concepts that I had not previously considered thoroughly. I find it a tremendous resource that I will refer to in the future. Mr. Ingersoll has obviously had a lifetime of financial experience in helping people like me, thank you.
