At a time when people are living longer and facing the possibility of spending decades in retirement, retirement planning expert R. J. Kelly has announced a special limited-time Amazon Flash Sale for his new book, Radical Retirement Roadmap: Creating Your Ideal Retirement – Starting Today!, written with Caitlin Taylor.

CHICAGO, IL – Aug. 22, 2026 – Radical Retirement Roadmap challenges the idea that preparing for retirement is primarily about accumulating enough money. Drawing on more than 35 years of experience helping clients plan for their futures, Kelly argues that an ideal retirement requires answering a much bigger set of questions about how much you will need, how soon you want to retire, how long your money must last, how many sources of income you will have, and perhaps most importantly, why you want to retire in the first place.

“We are more than one-dimensional,” said Kelly. “In addition to the financial needs, how do we address the relational, emotional, spiritual, mental, and physical needs of retirement?”

At the center of the book are what Kelly calls the Five How Questions: How Much? How Soon? How Long? How Many? and How Come? Together, they provide a practical framework for creating a personalized retirement roadmap rather than relying on conventional rules of thumb that may have little to do with the life an individual actually wants to live.

Along the way, Kelly tackles questions ranging from how much someone really needs for retirement and how much they should be saving to longevity, Social Security, Medicare, income diversification, 401(k)s, annuities, health savings accounts, life insurance, real estate, and retirement strategies for business owners and self-employed professionals. He also challenges readers to think about something that can easily get lost among account balances, rates of return, and retirement projections: what they are retiring to, not simply what they are retiring from.

“Your money needs to survive that long, but so does your purpose for living,” Kelly explained. “An ideal retirement is about more than building the pile. It is about knowing what you want that pile to make possible.”

Radical Retirement Roadmap is written for people at virtually any stage of retirement planning, from those who fear they have started too late to those already approaching retirement and questioning whether their current strategy reflects the future they actually want. With practical action steps, real-world examples, and Kelly’s conversational approach to complicated financial concepts, the book is designed to help readers begin creating their ideal retirement now rather than waiting until retirement is already upon them.
