Blog is Moving to RetirementResearcher.com; Please Re-Suscribe via Email

The blog has been quiet for a while, but not because it is going away. Rather, I've been receiving some great help to set up a new and improved website and blog at www.RetirementResearcher.com

The new website is now up and running, and soon all the links on this blog will be redirected to their new permanent homes. My blog continues over there, and there will be lots of new features on the website as well.

Thank you for everyone who's been a part of the growth of the Retirement Researcher blog thus far. There are over 2,000 e-mail subscribers already. As a part of transitioning to the new website, I do have to request that everyone interested to continue receiving the blog posts and other information by e-mail, to please resubscribe. I'm not going to be able to carry over the old subscription list. This link will get you to the resubscription page. When subscribing, the page asks whether or not you are a financial advisor. Either answer is okay, as this question is used to help direct more relevant information for different readers.

This is an ongoing issue of balance I am working with, as it may not be so common to have a readership which is quite evenly divided between financial advisors serving retirees, as well as individual investors planning toward their own retirements.

In addition to being the new home for the blog, RetirementResearcher.com also have some other new features. First and foremost is the Retirement Dashboard. It provides an up-to-date assessment about the costs of retiring today and what type of spending a typical saver could be expected to sustain when retiring at the present. Though I haven't started actively trying to promote the new dashboard, opportunities already came up for me to write about it at InvestmentNews and the Wall Street Journal website. I also have two detailed explanations (article #1 and article #2) about the dashboard methodology at Advisor Perspectives.

I'm hoping it will create a lot of interest as a one stop location which summarizes sustainable spending with the whole range of possible retirement income strategies from across the spectrum using both dedicated income sources and volatile investment portfolios.

I've also made a new and improved "Reading" page with links to my research articles and lots of good books on retirement income planning.

On the main homepage of the new website, you can also find 3 PDF e-books with "best of" content from the more than 300 blog posts I've already written.

Finally, longtime readers who are thinking in terms of their own retirements may like to have a look at the Retirement Readiness Review options now available. I'm working as Director of Retirement Research with McLean Asset Management to help build this one-time checkup opportunity for those who want to make sure that they're on the right track for meeting their retirement goals.

Thank you again for reading the blog and I hope to see you at the new and improved  Retirement Researcher blog.
