from the NY Times:
I HAVEN’T a clue what kind of psychiatrist Elisabeth Kübler-Ross was. But I do know she was a terrific financial planner.
Dr. Kübler-Ross, who died in 2004, is best known for identifying the five stages of grief that people go through once they understand they are dying. And those stages — denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance — describe perfectly my reactions when I read recently that, according to Fidelity Investments, my wife, Alison, and I will need to save eight times our current annual income to come even close to having the kind of retirement we want.
