Summary:

"One out two American adults today - 112 million - are past 50 and need sufficient investment income to fund their retirement. Yet traditional income investments such as CDs, money market funds and investment grade bonds are generating historically low returns below rate of inflation. A growing record number of investors need to earn significant cash flow with a portfolio of income producing investments that will grow over time to fund their golden years. This book will provide strategies and ideas to help readers generate the exceptional returns needed to finance their retirement. Hsu will cover everything from fixed income and equities to more non-traditional investment vehicles, like private equity and covered calls, to ensure retirees and soon-to-be retirees are utilizing all the opportunities available to them"-- Provided by publisher.
