Save Now or Die Trying is the first book that aims to discuss the importance and relevance of retirement planning specifically for today's younger workers. Written by Mark Bruno from Pension's & Investments, the author clearly describes why people in their 20's and 30's cannot afford to wait to save for retirement any longer.

The way Mr. Bruno, 29, and his generation will retire has changed. Retirement is no longer a certainty. Today's younger workers will be more accountable for their own retirement security -- yet many are not currently saving for their retirements at all.

Mr. Bruno argues that if younger people buy into the financial realities of retirement right this second, they could potentially be more secure in their futures than any other previous generation.

With Save Now or Die Trying, readers will learn about the basics of a number of retirement savings options-including 401ks and IRAS-as well as the benefits of saving early in their working lives. Written in a straightforward and accessible style, this guide will show readers how to take full advantage of the most important elements of the retirement planning process-time and participation. Through practical profiles of young adults dealing with difficult financial situations and detailed discussions with scores of financial advisors about the various options available for building long-term wealth, readers will quickly learn how to overcome the challenges of successfully saving for retirement.

Whether readers are just out of school or just starting a family, Save Now or Die Trying proves that a little commitment today can translate into significant long-term financial stability - and demonstrates why today's younger generation can no longer wait to start thinking about tomorrow.
