A guide to achieving financial freedom in retirement, E. Alan Fleischauer’s bestseller Reconfigurement™ reveals a roadmap guided by the Mantra, “Navigate, Customize, and Thrive.”
Advances in medicine, nutrition, and longevity planning now offer unparalleled possibilities to live longer, higher-quality lives. However, looming over this rosy image is a genuine concern: the financial ramifications of a longer retirement term. More alarming is that a sizable portion of the American populace is not harnessing their 401(k) retirement plans.
In light of this scenario, can traditional investment programs with fraying safety nets, such as pensions, remain viable? Reconfigurementcombines the emotional fulfillment of making retirement dreams a reality with practical guidance that rejects the notion of a set retirement age of 65. This work’s personal tales and sound financial guidance entice readers away from the constraints of traditional retirement approaches.
Author Fleischauer integrates the needs of financial, professional, and retirement life to create a path for long-term stability and success.
Reconfigurementopens with an eye-opening examination of the unpleasant reality of money and its importance in our lives. It focuses on why budgeting is crucial in a society where success relies so heavily on personal finance. Practical advice and experiences follow to demonstrate the viability of preserving the capacity to earn.
After addressing the financial side, Reconfigurementmoves on to the career aspect with a series of tests to assist readers in discovering what career would fit them best.
Continuing the journey, the book explains financial stability pillars that can help strengthen assets and ensure a fruitful retirement. It guides readers through the complexities of insurance, social security systems, and investment opportunities. Next follows the link between safeguarding one’s financial future through insurance and planning for retirement with a chapter on investment options.
The foundation of life, healthcare, takes center stage as Reconfigurement untangles the web of Medicare and Medicaid to safeguard one’s well-being across the years.
The specter of long-term care looms as the book addresses its issues and how to plan around them. Next comes guidance on securing a legacy for one’s posterity, focusing on wills, trusts, and the complexities of their legal and tax implications. This path to financial freedom finally carries into uncharted territory: education savings, budgeting skills, and charitable donations.
Reconfigurement delivers an in-depth account of the different aspects involved in preparing for and managing life transitions, both those hotly discussed and those concealed.
Case studies, practical counsel, and real-life examples serve to close the gap between theory and implementation. Also, the author concedes that the financial material may tire readers, so he endeavors to balance it with humor, anecdotes, and interactive components in a conversational tone.
Rather than aiming for ‘one-size-fits-all’, this book’s advice remains flexible for each reader’s unique situation.
Readers are encouraged to make decisions consistent with their goals, circumstances, and preferences. It is worth noting that Reconfigurement primarily targets the American audience in reflecting American financial standards and systems. However, its overarching financial planning concepts, emphasizing individual customization, assure its global applicability.

The Origins of the Harvey Chute Awards
Harvey Chute (1962-2015)
The Harvey Chute Awards hold a special place in our hearts as Harvey was a presenter at Chanticleer in the past. We named the Awards after him to honor his contributions and the business savvy that he brought to all interactions.
An author in his own right, Chute wrote Stone and Slit, a cozy historical mystery set during the gold-rush in British Columbia, just across the border. What he was most well know for though were his guides in the For Dummies series.
This is generally what they look like
For those who might not know: The For Dummies books are a series published by Wiley that break down difficult tasks into approachable, friendly how-to guides. Chute worked on a series detailing how to best use the Amazon Kindle.
Let’s take a closer look at KBoards, one of the many legacies left behind by Chute.
KBoards
KBoards.com is a lot like what you’d expect from a Reddit forum, but everything is related to Kindle and Amazon publishing. It reads like a community run FAQ for best practices. And speaking of, they have an FAQ to help use the platform right here. It’s a remarkable tool for any author willing to invest the time into making it work.
Speaking of authors trying to make it work…
Business & Finance
One of the toughest questions facing authors is how to maximize their book sales. Discounting a global pandemic, this was already hard enough to manage between digital sales and physical hand sales, not to mention author websites, social media, online presence, tours, events, and everything else! Writers are entrepreneurs, whether their books are independently or traditionally published.
If you’re not sure where to get started marketing your book, consider this article here written by Kiffer Brown and Sharon Anderson as your starting point!

RETIRE SECURELY: Insights on Money Management from an Award-Winning Financial Columnist
By Julie Jason
First Place Winner in I&I Awards
If you’re wondering what the difference is between a Roth IRA and a traditional IRA, then you’ll want to pick up Julie Jason’s Retire Securely: Insights on Money Management from an Award-Winning Financial Columnist. You will be treated to a crash course on financial terms like these and get inside information on saving and investing thanks to scores of conversations she’s had with her readers over the years.
Plenty of titles on financial planning and investing exist on bookstore shelves, but what makes Jason’s compilation different is that hers is culled from more than 1,000 columns she has written over the years for the Connecticut newspapers, Greenwich Time and the Stamford Advocate. In 2013, King Features syndicated her “Retirement Planning and Investment” column, where she explores topics like 401(k) investing, choosing a financial adviser and how to determine if sending your kid to college is a good value. Jason, who worked as a Wall Street lawyer, money manager, and investment counselor, really knows her stuff: whether it’s unraveling the complicated world of market trends or explaining estate planning, her columns are worth reading and applying to your financial life. Her column has recently moved from King Features to Andrews McMeel Syndicate [Chanticleer Reviews was notified about this change on April 3, 2020].
PRIVATE MONEY LENDING: How to Consistently Generate a Passive Income Stream
By Gustavo J. Gomez, Ph.D.
Are you in retirement, or close to it, wondering how you’re going to make ends meet pulling from your portfolio? Well, you’re not alone if you’re staying up at night thinking about how low-interest rates are killing your investments.
In a practical and easy to read format, Gomez explains to investors the particulars of a little known, yet potentially lucrative investment technique that can handle the ups and downs of the stock market. Unlike stocks, the underlying security of private money lending is a tangible asset – brick and mortar, so there is another layer of protection for you, the investor.
But what is Private Money Lending? According to Gomez, it refers to a private individual or organization that lends money. Typically, when you’re looking for financing, you would go to a bank. With private funds, on the other hand, you’re going to an individual or organization that specializes in this type of lending. The upside of private money lending is that it’s less regulated, which means less red tape. The icing on the cake, he says, is that these investments have consistently generated 9 to 12 percent returns* – not bad considering stock market investments have averaged closer to 7 percent, and with much more fluctuations. We can’t forget the economic crash of 2008 when many stock market investments plummeted close to 40 percent.
APE: Author, Publisher, Entrepreneur
By Guy Kawasaki and Shawn Welch
APE is the how-to compendium for today’s self-publishers.
Authors will findAPEan indispensable resource. Guy Kawasaki passes along his publishing experience in his “no-shitake,” but affable manner. Imagine having an extremely successful uncle in the publishing biz who also has a tech-wizard pal (co-author Shawn Welch) of digital publishing magic. Fortunately for us, this dynamic duo decided to share their publishing know-how.
APE’s premise is that publishing is a parallel process “that requires simultaneous progress along multiple fronts.” Hence, self-publishers are challenged with how to: market, brand, design, promote, publish, distribute, and finance a book–all at the same time. Oh, and don’t forget the time required for actually writing the book. Indisputably, each self-publisher is an:Author, Publisher and Entrepreneur.
WELFARE CHEESE to FINE CAVIAR
By Thomas Wideman, MBA, PMP
Thomas Wideman, the author of this dynamic self-help manual,Welfare Cheese to Fine Caviar: How to Achieve Your Dreams Despite Your Upbringing, rose from poverty and dismay to a life of security and personal achievement through techniques he shares with readers who can incorporate them into their own life plans.
Wideman came from an impoverished African American family wracked by confusion, chaos, and, at times, criminality. His mother had three sons by three fathers, and he would come to know his own father only peripherally, eventually learning that the man murdered people and subsequently died in prison. The boy grew up in tough neighborhoods and ate “welfare cheese” (a block of pre-sliced heavy American cheese that supposedly melted well). Every month, making ends meet became more and more difficult. In an early chapter of this finely woven chronology, we see him taking food from trains parked along the railroad tracks and running from the authorities. In this, as in each new chapter, he speaks of confronting severe issues and finding ways to resolve them. In the case of the theft and other childhood incidents of fighting, experiencing bullies, and battling racism, he speaks of making up his mind that “my circumstances need not be my limitation.”
