The Evidence (Part 1) 12 Simple Ways Can Supercharge Your Retirement

December 1, 2021

About a year ago, we released the book, We’re Talking Millions! 12 Simple Ways to Supercharge Your Retirement. A few people have challenged the idea that each of the 12 simple steps, outlined in the book, can net you an additional million dollars. Paul, Craig Appl, and Chris Pedersen evaluate the evidence using The Merriman Financial Education Foundation Lifetime Investment Calculator, Portfolio Visualizer, and Two Funds for Life back tests in this two-part video series.
Download your free PDF copy of the book now to follow along. You can access the Lifetime Investment Calculator at this link and the accompanying YouTube video here.

  2. Start saving sooner instead of later.
