Book Description

This book will change the way you think about and invest in your retirement savings plan-forever. Internationally bestselling author and consumer advocate Dan Solin challenges some basic and misguided assumptions about traditional retirement plans to reveal that: ? 401(k) and 403(b) plans are laden with Porky Pig fees, poor investment choices, and conflicts of interest. You may be better off just saying "No!" ? There is a simple way to make smart choices in these plans- and this book shows you exactly what to do and which funds to avoid. ? There is one investment that could be the key to a successful retirement plan. You can do it yourself, with pre-tax or after-tax money. Create your own, inflation-proof pension plan that is guaranteed to provide you with monthly income for as long as you live, and beyond! Smart Investing is not complicated. You have the power to make meaningful changes to your retirement savings plan-no matter what your age or financial status. "If you haven't taken a recent look at what your own retirement investments are doing and-perhaps even more important-how they are put together, reading Solin's smart little book might provide the impetus for action." -Miami Herald

Book Description

In October 2005, Jason Foster, then a staff member of the Alberta Federation of Labour, was walking a picket line outside Lakeside Packers in Brooks, Alberta with the members of local 401. It was a first contract strike. And although the employees of the meat-packing plant—many of whom were immigrants and refugees—had chosen an unlikely partner in the United Food and Commercial Workers local, the newly formed alliance allowed the workers to stand their ground for a three-week strike that ended in the defeat of the notoriously anti-union company, Tyson Foods. It was but one example of a wide range of industries and occupations that local 401 organized over the last twenty years. In this study of UFCW 401, Foster investigates a union that has had remarkable success organizing a group of workers that North American unions often struggle to reach: immigrants, women, and youth. By examining not only the actions and behaviour of the local’s leadership and its members but also the narrative that accompanied the renewal of the union, Foster shows that both were essential components to legitimizing the leadership’s exercise of power and its unconventional organizing forces.

Book Description

A consumer-empowerment book for people in 401(k), 403(b) & 457(b) plans. The average participant fee in small business 401k plans across the U.S is 4%. Fees are not much lower at even mid and large-size companies. Learn how employees can take the lead and drive change within companies by working with management to secure lower retirement plan fees. From The Back Cover… For every hundred dollars in your workplace retirement account, how much is your 401(k), 403(b) or 457(b) company slipping out the back door for themselves? Hint: Don’t ask your employer. They don’t know either. All they did was hire the company. And so it goes… In every town, in every workplace across the U.S… Employees blissfully trust that their employer selected a good retirement plan. Employers blissfully trust that they did too, completely unaware of what good actually looks like. The only ones who know what good and bad look like are the retirement plan companies, and therein lies the problem. It is a classic case of the fox guarding the henhouse. Only this fox is really smart, because you don’t even know if your hens are missing. You are about to find out. 401 CONFIDENTIAL takes you on the inside of the retirement plan industry. I do a brain dump on how retirement plans are packaged, priced and sold to private and public-sector employers. I show you the dirty little secrets of the industry. I show what ultra-low fees and ultra-high fees look like. And I show employers and employees how to calculate your fees and take back what belongs to you. By the end of this book I shift the entire balance of power from the retirement plan companies to the retirement plan consumers.
