When you think about retirement, what comes to mind? Maybe it has something to do with stopping work, but should it? Whatever your plans for retirement are, do you know how to achieve them? Do you know how your pensions, ISAs, property and everything else will come together to deliver the lifestyle you want one day?

In this deeply practical book, 25-year veteran financial planner Pete Matthew walks you through the three phases of retirement:

• The Home Straight – the last five or ten years before retirement, when it’s time to get everything in place and aligned.
• The Great Transition – for many of us, retiring is a process not an event and it looks different for each of us.
• The New Normal – once we’re settled into our new life, we need to keep everything under review and look towards some later life planning.

In this book, you’ll find everything you need to KNOW and everything you need to DO to plan and enjoy your perfect retirement.
