Praise for Transform Tomorrow "A compelling call to action for a renewed American focus on savings and retirement preparation! Living comfortably longer, as my father told me, can be the ultimate payback for a life of thrift, and he proved it for 29 retired years until he passed just before his 94th birthday. This book should light the fire in the public to embrace thrift, savings, and retirement planning." Dallas L. Salisbury, President and CEO, Employee Benefit Research Institute "Transform Tomorrow is a passionate call to action for all Americans to elevate the task of retirement planning into their daily lives! It is a wake-up call for plan sponsors; policymakers; the retirement industry; and, of course, employees who participate in 401(k) plans. We all need to learn and adopt the habits of Super Savers!" Vince Giovinazzo, CEO, Retirement Plan Advisory Group and 401(k) Advisors "Stig Nybo's excellent treatise, Transform Tomorrow, provides a crucial component in the national debate on retirement readiness, namely perspective. His insights, gleaned from years of seeing the retirement issue played out from the inside, should be a must-read for policymakers as they tackle one of the most important social and financial issues facing the country today." Peter Starr, President and CEO, Chatham Partners "This book addresses the need for a Retirement Readiness Campaign that helps people know what they need to know, shows them how to use the tools they need to use the information, and motivates them to action. We hope the 'Transform Tomorrow Campaign' moves quickly to assist the millions of Americans who are waiting for help to understand the complicated choices ahead and avoid financial potholes in old age." Cindy Hounsell, President, Women's Institute for a Secure Retirement "Transform Tomorrow is a book that all Americans, especially those entering the work force, should read. In a consumption-driven society, the message that Stig Nybo delivers should have all of us questioning our short- and long-term goals-lifestyle, health, and financial. Early in the book, Stig's reference to past Public Service Announcements sets the stage for how wholesale change in the U.S. can actually become reality. Transform Tomorrow lays out a blueprint that will allow Americans to retire with financial security and dignity." Greg Taylor, President, Qualified Benefits
A campaign to prepare Americans for their futures Transform Tomorrow investigates why so many Americans are at risk of out-living their savings. Author Stig Nybo draws inspiration from successful behavior change campaigns to identify the drivers of change--context and beliefs--and how they can be successfully employed to boost retirement savings rates. While the retirement savings industry increasingly embraces the contextual drivers of behavior, very little is being done to shape our beliefs to start saving smarter and sooner. Nybo suggests a retirement readiness campaign to inspire and enlist the support of individuals, employers, industry, government, and the media. * Explains how society can transition from treating 401(k) as a voluntary benefit to the basis upon which each individual who wants to or needs to can retire comfortably. * Details a national, coordinated retirement readiness campaign, along the lines of successful Public Service Advertisements--like "The Crying Indian" and Rosie the Riveter--that will help change behavior and re-shape the culture of our nation * Makes a call to action for such a campaign Retirement in America is endangered, but Transform Tomorrow shows a path back from the brink.
