(ARA) - If you've delayed planning for retirement because it makes you feel a) old or b) financially inept, think again. With a little foresight, you could be out there enjoying life like other people -- maybe even before you reach the so-called "retirement age." Like many people in the prime of life, it's not unusual to think of retirement as such a distant idea that you avoid saving for it until next week, next year, next job. After all, who's got time to think about the "R" word? In reality, it's never too late, or too early, to start planning for retirement. Retirement used to be defined as what a person was no longer doing. More and more, however, retirement has come to mean what a person is can ...

However, thanks to an army of insurance salespeople out there that is bent on making a buck off your policy, it has instead become a source of confusion for many people. Before I offer you my own rules for life insurance, let's get some perspectives on the topic from members of the Armchair Millionaire community:"I don't have life insurance because I have no children to support and the equity in my home would be enough to pay any debt and funeral/burial expenses. I'd rather have disability insurance instead - something that will help me if I'm hurt and still living!" --Kathy"My wife ...

Needless to say, he was delighted to have a chortling chinwag with me by satellite phone from his nippy ice-fishing hut at the North Pole.Readers who understand the value of milk and milk products plus high fibre diets also know we all pay a price for being part of the animal kingdom, perhaps more so during the holiday season. So, what's this got to do with the price of tea in China? Well, allowance should probably be made for ...
New York, NY (ContentDesk) December 30, 2004 -- I've found that it can be tremendously helpful for building out a financial roadmap to think in terms of financial milestones. These are all the events in your life that will require you to make serious decisions that may affect your entire financial future. There are many financial milestones that you may face--buying your first home, the birth of a child and changing careers, divorce or the death of your spouse are but a few examples. Some may be expected, like the death of your parents, while others may strike out of the blue, like receiving an inheritance from your long lost cousin.We recently asked members of the Armchair Millionaire community to weigh in on which financial milestones are most important. Here ...
New York, NY December 7, 2004 - As the interval between college and true adulthood has seemed to lengthen in recent decades, it is not at all uncommon anymore for young adults to live with their parents. A 2002 survey by MonsterTRAK.com, in fact, found that 63 of U.S. graduating college students planned to live at their parents' homes after graduation. We asked the parents in the Armchair Millionaire community about the best ways to get kids ready to leave home and heard a number of astute responses. Here are just two:"Preparing children to move out should start long, long before moving day. Basic principles of budgeting, saving and spending should be taught from early childhood on. Everyone starting out ought to know the fundamentals of saving, use of ...

My name is Shauna. In the spring of 2001, I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. What a shock this was, not only for me but also for my entire family, especially my husband. I've always been health conscious, eating well and working out at the gym, so consequently, I never saw this coming.My symptoms were frightening. They ranged from vision loss with numbness and tingling in my limbs, to complete paralysis in my left leg. The hardest thing I had to deal with though was a mind-numbing exhaustion that just would not go away no matter how much sleep I would get. I literally felt as though I was weighted down with bricks. Even though I took a lot of anti-fatigue medications, I still needed to sleep as much as ...
