Get your cash out of retirement savings without giving away your nest egg to the IRS!

Perhaps your retirement is on the horizon. Or you're changing jobs. Or are about to turn 70. 5 years old....

Whatever is going on with your retirement account, IRAs, 401(K)s & Other Retirement Plans is for you! Make sense of the rules that govern distributions from retirement plans - and avoid the stiff taxes and penalties that lurk in the fine print.

In plain English, this book discusses all common types of retirement plans, including 401(k)s and other profit-sharing plans, Keoghs, IRAs and tax-deferred annuities. It covers:
