Garth does a fantastic job through engaging storytelling to make real the hazards of holding on to assumptions you have not challenged. Challenge what you know to be true, expect the unexpected, and be open to learning. The book does a fantastic job in laying out how you can live confidently if you are open to planning in the right way.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! This book does an excellent job helping the reader think through the decisions we face as we retire and as we prepare to move on. Most importantly, the book addresses questions we all should discuss and answer as a family just in case we have an event (stroke, dementia, etc.) that leaves us alive, but impeded or unable to make sound financial decisions. While none of us hope for or expect that scenario, we leave our family in a much happier state if we’ve planned for those eventualities while we are lucid. The writer is experienced and trustworthy and the layout of the book makes conversations easy to navigate together with our loved ones.
