by Thomas Maskell Adams Media, 2009, 256 pp. If you, or a client, have reached retirement age with only a modest savings for retirement, this book is for you. With no market experience, former engineer Thomas Maskell started his investing career during retirement and learned the business of buying and selling stocks from the ground up. Now he shares that knowledge so others can get into the game. According to Maskell, a retiree’s chances for success are enhanced, not hurt, by a market collapse.
