2moryrs: I just noticed your question about Snow-Cap. I attended a pre-retirement seminar given by one of their "instructors" in late 2007, about 6 months before I retired. I thought it was very worthwhile, especially since it was free! It was one day, from 08:00 to 18:00, with 30 minutes for lunch. They encouraged the participants to bring their spouses (or significant other) to the class, which I did. The (excellent) instructor packed a LOT of info into a one-day class, especially since we had a mix of CSRS and FERS employees in the group of about 30 participants, and he had to cover both systems. He hit on every aspect of planning for, and applying for, retirement. The simple stuff he touched on lightly - the hard stuff he spent more time explaining. He answered questions - he asked questions - he got the "students" thinking about everything they need to do to prepare for retirement. He emphasized the importance of being pro-active and taking responsibility for your own retirement process. He stressed that YOU are the one most interested in your retirement, and that YOU should educate yourself in every way possible on the whole process. Going to one or more seminars prior to retiring is a great way to start that educational process. We got a very nice 170+ page workbook to keep after the class. It is full of up-to-date info and handy worksheets to aid in your retirement planning. As you can tell, I was very happy with the Snow-Cap program, and I recommend it. (And no, I didn't go to work for them after I retired, so I have nothing to gain by pimping for them)
