Friday freebie: Copies of retirement guide up for grabs

Need a little help with the whole concept of retirement? Financial planner Patricia Howard is here to help and is giving away copies of her new book, The No-Regrets Guide to Retirement.

Ms Howard has written for The Australian, the Australian Financial Review and The Age and has run her own financial planning practice for 15 years.

She writes that she has been blessed with the opportunity, and challenge, of living in 'third world' countries Brazil, Mexico and Kenya where the standard of living, compared with Australia, is very poor.

She writes: "If you are lucky enough to be entitled to hold an Australian passport, either by birth or by choice, you have won the global lottery. We, as a nation of people, are the big winners in this world ...

"Don't waste time wishing you had more money in super or that you owned a bigger house or lived closer to the beach. Be present in your life. Retirement is your opportunity to chill, breathe and enjoy."

Ms Howard's very positive book is a comprehensive guide to all aspects of retirement. Published by Wiley, it is available in all good bookshops for $29.95.

To win your copy, be among the first to correctly answer this question: Name the capital cities of Brazil, Kenya and Mexico. Send your answer to newsletters@yourlifechoices.com.au
