This is a true story sent to me by a reader of my books. His family gave me permission to publish this sad tale, but requested I protect their anonymity.
Bill Hacknett (not his real name) had planned well for retirement. He was a senior executive with a major, publicly traded company. He had spent his entire working career in corporate America. When his company downsized, it was not a problem for him. Over his 30-year employment history, he had accumulated significant assets in his 401(k) plan and, in his late fifties, was ready for early retirement.
Then disaster struck.
