Kenmore, WA -- (SBWire) -- 12/09/2014 --Nearly 20% of people reaching retirement age in 2014 have not yet saved for it. Advocate for personal responsibility and self development, Jeff Barnes, President of Great Blue Capital, announces the release of his brand new book that will help people live the best retirement life they can (www.selfdirected.com/book). Using tried and true methods of wealth building, Jeff has written The Ultimate Guide to Self-Directed Investing & Retirement Planning as a tool for people to learn and understand what it takes to take responsibility for a personal financial future and security.
The book, a mini-course in retirement investing, contains interviews from several experts in the investment field, as well as several years of Jeff's own research regarding the retirement industry. A special pre-launch sneak peek will offer readers a chance to look at the first few chapters of the book for free prior to the December 31 launch.
Jeff has learned that when it comes to making decisions regarding something as important as health and wealth, people too easily hand over the reins to someone else billed as an 'expert' and then sit back and hope for the best. In his book, Jeff teaches people how to think outside the box while learning how to question the status quo, instead relying more on one's own personal education, training, and experience to guide decisions.
"I believe people are smart enough to master their own finances," says Jeff, "however, they just haven't been given the proper tools or education to do so." He further pointed out that "Most people still hold out hope for Social Security, Pensions, and other types of plans for their financial security. Unfortunately, the rules of finance have changed."
The Financial Crisis of 2008 brought about massive changes in investment and securities regulations. For this reason, Americans need a new way to plan for and invest in their future. 'The Ultimate Guide to Self-Directed Investing & Retirement Planning' is all the information people will need to start investing in their future now.
