Millennials are puzzled, especially ordinary people with ordinary jobs: How can they provide for retirement without job protection, steady pay raises, guaranteed pensions, or even 401(k) plans? With advances in science, medicine, and technology they''ll live a good five years longer than their parents, needing even more money.The purpose of this book is to tell Millennials about a time-tested solution to this puzzle, one that''s brilliant in its simplicity. In addition to solving the money problem, it''ll also restore hope and optimism about the future. Turns out that re-allocating one''s career, and not finding more income, is the solution. The Greatest Generation paid off the mortgage by age 50-55, liberating the last 15 years of career for saving and investment accounts. Do the same and result will be a cash nest egg that''s a whopping five times your annual income, which can pay half of living expenses during 20 years in retirement. With the other half paid by Social Security and other income, you can provide for retirement on the income you currently earn. This is the "Nest Egg Strategy," an old idea whose time has come again. If it seems too simple - remember- the truth is always simple! (Online calculators at www.nesteggstraetgy.com will report how much money this means to you.) With the retirement puzzle solved, you can turn to protecting your refuge and sanctuary from the dint and tumult of the outside world, including a fickle real estate market and callous lenders. After all, it''s the most important place your life - home is sacred space!"This book could go a long way to easing America''s retirement challenge. Well written and wise." Honorable Richard D. Lamm, Former Governor of Colorado.

Istvan Szabo is one of Hungary's most celebrated and best-known film directors, and the only Hungarian to have won an Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, for Mephisto (1981). In a career spanning over five decades Szabo has relentlessly examined the place of the individual in European history, particularly those caught up in the turbulent events of Central Europe and his own native Hungary. His protagonists struggle to find a place for themselves, some meaning in their lives, security and a sense of being, against a background of two world wars (Colonel Redl, Confidence), the Holocaust (Sunshine), the Hungarian Uprising and the Cold War (Father, 25 Fireman's Street, Taking Sides). This is the first English-language study of all his feature films and uses material from interviews with Szabo and his collaborators. Also included are chapters on his formative years, including his time at the famous Budapest Film Academy and the relationship of the state to the film industry in Hungary.

In this Consciousness Classic dating from 1967, Dr. John C. Lilly details the discoveries of his research regarding the abilities of dolphins, current ideas (at that time) about their intellect, and the paradoxes of interspecies communication. The book includes a detailed account of the experiment carried out by Dr. Lilly of having a dolphin and human live together in a specially designed house, and this expanded edition includes black-and-white photo plates and additional articles and writings from Dr. Lilly on dolphins as well as other scientific subjects. This is the book that launched a subculture seeking human-dolphin interaction. Although some of Lilly's findings on dolphin communication have now been refuted, Dr. Lilly's willingness to delve into areas not documented in the scientific literature is still an important scientific achievement and a cultural model for younger generations.
