Will Your Golden Years Be Tarnished?
For many of us, retirement won't be what Mom and Dad told us it would be. They worked for a single company for life and got a nice gold watch and a hefty pension when they left. What do we get? Pensions are a relic of the past. Instead of a defined benefit plan, we have defined contribution plans -- our 401(k)s, 403(b)s, and 457 plans. Only our investing prowess will be able to sustain us in retirement. And get this: • We're going to live longer, be active longer, and be retired longer than our parents were. • We'll need more money to sustain us during our increased retirement years. • Like it or not, a lot of us will have to work during our retirement years. What's up with that? Not quite what you had in mind, is it? Obviously we need a plan.
Unhappy CBR men mull early retirement
KARACHI: Many of the senior officers of Central Board of Revenue are not happy with the policies being introduced by the organization and have decided to retire early, sources told The News.
Many of them have already resigned and those who are young want to leave and join some other government departments, sources said.
A very senior officer of Customs said many officers currently serving the CBR want to join provincial government departments, as they are not happy with the working conditions in the single largest revenue collecting authority of the country.
A major factor of resentment among the officers is the induction of military officers on higher posts.
While many other government departments have got used to be directed by the military men, this is the first time that the military officers have made inroads in the CBR.
AFL Weekly Reviews Round Two 2007
Pie ruckman Guy Richards had a free at the restart and dished off to Scott Burns, his pass found Davis on-the-lead for another goal and the Poise led by 13 points. The locals responded, Lynch’s skilful gather and handpass sent Michael Braun in for a running goal. But a minute later Rocca launched a wobbly 70m ‘miskick’ which sailed through for full points. Must be something about that spot, it was about where Lade kicked a torpedo goal last week. Pies by 13 again as goals alternated for a bit, Weeg Steven Armstrong threaded a free-kick through after Pie Heath Shaw kicked on-the-full while being tackled. Davis free-kicked his third goal of the quarter after being ridden into the sandy turf by Wirrpanda, who soon returned to the forward-line. Rocca was reported, ridiculously, for a late bump on Weeg ruckman Jaymie Graham.
Phil Wasserman Announces Series of White Papers on Life Insurance ...
SARASOTA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 25, 2007--Phil Wasserman, one of the nation's leading experts in life insurance and president of Phillip Roy Financial Services, one of the leading firms in retirement income planning and sellers of annuities and life insurance, is announcing a new series of white papers on the settlement of existing life insurance policies, known as "Life Settlement." "Life Settlement is when a person no longer needs or wants an existing in place life insurance policy that he or she or a trust has owned for more than two years," Phil Wasserman says. "And many people over the age of 65 don't even know that many Wall street firms want to purchase their existing insurance policies. Instead, they lapse the policy, leaving huge amounts of money on the table. Experts estimate that over 60% of all life insurance policies dealing with people over the age of 65 lapse.
