Web Sites
A search for 'retirement' at Google returns 12,400,000 hits! While there's plenty of sites that talk about retirement most folks need some guidance on where to start and how to find the sites that meet their needs for information. I strongly recommend working through sites such as these before your first visit to a retirement planner. The more you learn ahead of time, the more value you'll get from your time with the professional.

As you learn more about retirement you'll find that these sites have content which didn't catch your eye the first time through, so plan to return to your favorite sites often!

Calculators

The trend on the web is for sites to present a list of questions that an investor or retiree might ask and link to a calculator which can answer that specific question. Some sites have a list of up to 50 sample questions for which they offer calculators. As you might imagine, these can get very specific - particularly covering the various types of investments available on the market today.

The calculators offered at this site cover the more important retirement-specific questions, but in case you feel the need for others, here's list of some of the web's most useful online calculators.
