About the Book
In The Long Run is about a phase of life that almost everyone is going to arrive at: Retirement.
Let us look at it as the top of a high mountain which we aspire to climb. At the base of the mountain, everything is fine; the temperature is normal, and strength is at its highest. But as we climb higher, the air gets thinner, the temperature drops, and we get tired. Those who make it to the top of the mountain are the ones who prepare the best.
Lastly, finance appears to get the most attention in preparation for retirement, but is it the most significant concern?
We may find that some people do not plan to retire. It is as though they have not factored that retirement is inevitable as the body slows down.
Some people believe that retirement is far off, and adopt the “we-will-come-to-it-later” attitude. They forget that preparation takes time.
In The Long Run is about how to make the most of this seemingly far-off phase of life: retirement.
