Dear Investor:
You've heard all the talk. Pick up virtually any financial magazine or
retirement planning guide and you'll find the same messages:
* You can't count on Social Security as a major source of retirement income
it may only provide a small portion of the income you'll need.
* Consider the impact of inflation and taxes on your retirement savings
together they can erode your investment earnings.
* Americans are living longer than ever and that means you'll spend more
years in your retirement.
* Ample personal savings are critical to enjoying a comfortable lifestyle in
your retirement.
Ask yourself, "Am I prepared for a comfortable retirement?" If not, you'll be
glad to know the road to retirement can be a little easier ... if your
investments have growth potential.
