What are the secrets to a healthy, happy, and wealthy retirement?

To answer that question, longtime Morningstar columnist and podcaster Christine Benz asked 20 retirement thought leaders to go deep on a single lesson that they believe contributes to success in retirement.

These lessons range from nitty gritty financial matters to quality-of-life considerations that help pre-retirees and retirees maximize their “time on earth” allocations.

On the financial side of the ledger, the book delves into knowing your retirement income style (Wade Pfau), understanding how your spending might change in retirement (David Blanchett), and organizing your portfolio to support in-retirement cash flows (William Bernstein).

Other interviews probe softer but no less important considerations, such as how to spend in order to optimize happiness (Ramit Sethi), the value of burnishing relationships later in life (Laura Carstensen), and living life so that you have no regrets in the end (Jordan Grumet). These lessons help soon-to-retire and already-retired individuals and their advisors tackle retirement with confidence, wisdom, and a specific plan for maximizing their financial and human capital.

You know where you want to go. You know you have it within you. You just need the courage to do it.

As a former Google executive and top career coach – who chased an attractive stranger off the train and later married him – Jenny Wood knows her way around courage. In this book, Wood shatters conventional wisdom about achieving your goals. She gives you permission to ditch your fear and chase after what you want, unapologetically.

Wood reclaims nine traits from their negative shackles and teaches you how to apply them in a savvy and compassionate way to supercharge your success, whether you’re trying to snag a promotion, launch a company or land a life-changing deal.

Wild Courage will teach you how to be:

• Weird: Win as you or lose as ‘who?’.
• Selfish: Be your own champion.
• Shameless: Beat impostor syndrome and self-promote with ease.
• Obsessed: Push, persist and perform at your highest level.
• Nosy: Get curious to network confidently and learn from others.
• Manipulative: Build influence with empathy and manage up like a pro.
• Brutal: Draw lines and stick to them. Embrace the power of no.
• Reckless: Err on the side of action and take healthy risks.
• Bossy: Steer others to success, even if you’re not in charge yet.

For generations, we have defined a corporation as a business run by a capitalist elite, that uses its accumulated wealth to own the means of production and exercise economic power.

That is no longer the reality. In the twenty-first century, our most desired goods and services aren't stacked in warehouses or on container ships: they appear on your screen, fit in your pocket or occupy your head.
But even as we consume more than ever before, big business faces a crisis of legitimacy. The pharmaceutical industry creates life-saving vaccines but has lost the trust of the public. The widening pay gap between executives and employees is destabilising our societies. Facebook and Google have more customers than any companies in history but are widely reviled.

John Kay, one of the greatest economists of our time, describes how the pursuit of shareholder value has destroyed some of the leading companies of the twentieth century. Incisive and provocative, this book redefines successful commercial activity and leadership, the knowledge economy and what the future of the modern corporation might be.

During the years before 1914 the world's still largely unused resources were brought increasingly within the framework of a single world economy. This process owed much to Britain's ability to export capital on a scale which has never since been equalled. Yet periods of heavy investment overseas alternated with home investment booms that absorbed the greater part of Britain's savings. The reasons for this fluctuation, and the mechanism which linked Britain's economic development with the rest of the world, are still subject to debate. This volume illuminates the problems of the global economy today by examining different interpretations and research from history.

Wealth. Stability. Freedom. Hard work is often not enough to achieve these universal goals. Rashad Bilal and Troy Millings know the systemic barriers that keep those who are hustling from achieving their dreams and it's now their mission to level the playing field. For the first time since having built a multimillion following for their Earn Your Leisure platform, including legendary entrepreneurs from Tyler Perry to Patricia Bright, they reveal their game plan for financial freedom.

Laying out financial, investment and entrepreneurial lessons alongside tools for harnessing your ambition, this book breaks down the strategies for creating wealth and building a lasting legacy. From overcoming financial trauma and navigating familial expectations to earning enough to be in control, this is a first-of-its-kind guide to mastering the money game, whether you grew up knowing the rules or not.

The definitive guide to eliminating the forces that make it harder, more complicated, or downright impossible to get things done in organizations. Find out why Adam Grant says "If every leader took the ideas in this book seriously, the world would be a less miserable, more productive place."

Every organization is plagued by destructive friction. Yet some forms of friction are incredibly useful, and leaders who attempt to improve workplace efficiency often make things even worse. Drawing from seven years of hands-on research, The Friction Project by bestselling authors Robert I. Sutton and Huggy Rao teaches readers how to become “friction fixers.”

Sutton and Rao kick off the book by unpacking how skilled friction fixers think and act like trustees of others’ time. They provide friction forensics to help readers identify where to avert and repair bad organizational friction and where to maintain and inject good friction. Then their help pyramid shows how friction fixers do their work, from reframing friction troubles they can’t fix right now, so they feel less threatening, to designing and repairing organizations. The heart of the book digs into the causes and solutions for five of the most common and damaging friction troubles: oblivious leaders, addition sickness, broken connections, jargon monoxide, and fast and frenzied people and teams.

Sound familiar? Sutton and Rao are here to help. They wrap things up with lessons for leading your own friction project, including linking little things to big things; the power of civility, caring, and love for propelling designs and repairs; and embracing the mess that is an inevitable part of the process (while still trying to clean it up).

Many features ofthis text make it consistent with and relevant to the CFA curriculum. The common unifying theme is that securitymarkets are nearly efficient, meaning that most securities are priced appropriately given their risk and return attributes. Investments is alsoorganized around several important themes: The central theme is the near informational-efficiency of well-developed security markets and the general awareness that competitive markets do not offer "free lunches" to participants.

A good Shareholder Agreement is like a fence at the top of a cliff, which stops company owners from falling over the edge and into the hands of lawyers who wait in the ambulance parked beside the rocks below. This book explains in easy to understand language what a Shareholder Agreement does, the common clauses it contains and when it is best to put one in place. I have found that most client meetings I attend to discuss Shareholder Agreements follow a familiar script. Company owners ask similar questions, have common worries, want to achieve matching outcomes and, in response, I give them the same answers. The result is `Shareholder Agreements: the 30 minute guide', which explains the typical issues that arise when company owners want to put in place a Shareholder Agreement and how to overcome them. Part One explains what a Shareholder Agreement is, who needs one and when it is best to think about getting one. Part Two explores the most common clauses that 99% of company owners ask for in their Shareholder Agreement. Finally, Part Three highlights some thorny legal issues to watch out for when finalising your Shareholder Agreement. My aim is to demystify Shareholder Agreements for business advisers and accountants who often become the first contact for company owners with a question about making a Shareholder Agreement. This book will also be helpful for company owners who feel comfortable building their own Shareholder Agreement from a template they have purchased. By the time you have read this book you will understand how a Shareholder Agreement will protect company owners against unexpected life events, why a Shareholder Agreement is sometimes called a `Business Will' and what to ask your lawyer when you are ready to put in place your own Shareholder Agreement.

Despite its economic impact, understanding what shaped emerging economies' success seems to be a mystery.

Saunders and Cornett's Financial Institutions Management: A Risk Management Approach provides an innovative approach that focuses on managing return and risk in modern financial institutions. The central theme is that the risks faced by financial institutions managers and the methods and markets through which these risks are managed are becoming increasingly similar whether an institution is chartered as a commercial bank, a savings bank, an investment bank, or an insurance company. Although the traditional nature of each sector's product activity is analyzed, a greater emphasis is placed on new areas of activities such as asset securitization, off-balance-sheet banking, and international banking.
