People who work for themselves often neglect to plan for their retirement. Yet failing to stash away money is like ignoring your taxes or keeping poor records -- it's financial roulette! 
Fortunately, it's not difficult to establish a nest egg. Nolo's new book, Creating Your Own Retirement Plan, provides the straightforward information you need to select, establish and operate a retirement plan. It covers: 
*simple IRAs 
*SEP IRAs 
*traditional IRAs 
*Roth IRAs 
*profit-sharing plans 
*defined benefit plans 
*401(k) plans 
In plain English, the book explains how to select the best plan, set it up, make contributions, administer the plan, and then -- finally -- receive distributions. The latest edition is completely revised to reflect the massive changes wrought by the 2001 Tax Law, which altered many of the rules and regulations governing retirement plans.
