PLYMOUTH, MA… The numbers are startling. Nearly 50 percent of women ages 55 to 66 have no personal retirement savings, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

In the recently released What’s the Deal with Retirement Planning for Women – Second Edition (Rethink Press), Marcia Mantell, nationally-known speaker, author, retirement planning guru and baby boomer, shares her pearls of wisdom, along with a baker’s dozen questions that women need to consider prior to leaving that paycheck behind.

Mantell has spent 30 years talking to women about retirement and how and why they should plan for the future.

“While most women are looking forward to retirement, I have found that they don’t always have a plan for what happens when that paycheck stops. Those who truly felt ready to retire have one thing in common – they have been planning and saving for their retirement for many years,” explained Mantell.

What’s the Deal with Retirement Planning for Women Second Edition is an easy-to-digest and entertaining retirement planning book that offers up all the “ingredients” women will need to confidently plan for their retirement. In her book, Mantell provides tips and resources including:

  • Defining your retirement years and what you want them to look like
  • Using your skills to manage your retirement
  • Addressing new ideas for living well in your eighties and nineties
  • Navigating Social Security and Medicare

“So many women nearing retirement with whom I’ve talked are truly unprepared for life after working,” said Mantell. “My goal in the new edition of What’s the Deal with Retirement Planning for Women is for women to confidently be able to answer the question of ‘Will I really have enough money to last through my retirement?’ well before they actually leave their job behind.”

What’s the Deal with Retirement Planning for Women Second Edition (Rethink Press) retails for $16.99 and is available for purchase at Amazon.com books and Barnesandnoble.com.
