The Next Big Thing
By Jersey Gilbert and Tiernan Ray

WE'RE NOT going to kid ourselves. We know that a lot of people
won't be thrilled with the number they get at the bottom of our new
early-retirement worksheet. Just now starting to save? Putting your
children through college? Supporting elderly parents who themselves
perhaps never saved enough for retirement? Then you know what we're
talking about. Your number -- the amount you need to save every year
to make your retirement goal -- is going to look huge. Or even, perish
the thought, unattainable.

But with a little luck, there might be something you can do about it. The fact is, even a small amount
invested in the right place can give your portfolio the lift it needs, getting you close to your early
retirement faster than you ever imagined.
