One of the most disturbing facts of retiring today is that most retirees have absolutely no idea how to manage their own pension plan. So they just plug along in the 401(k)s, hoping for the best. But, quite obviously, they are not getting that.

There is a free report produced by Wharton economist David Babbel on how to invest your retirement nest egg. You can get it here: http://www.retiredsafely.com/index.php?p=1_23_Requesting-Babbel-Report

60 Minutes put up a report last year called 401 Fallout that should stun you into finding a better way to build your nest egg. Here is that report: http://www.retiredsafely.com/index.php?p=1_38_60-Minutes-401-k-Fallout

Here is another report that will teach you how to build your nest egg without taking one bit of market risk: http://www.retiredsafely.com/index.php?p=1_25_Grow
