You are being asked to complete an online survey as part of a study by Robert Laura, the founder and president of the Retirement Coaches Association. The purpose of the study is to better understand issues people face around retirement. The survey will take 12-15 minutes to complete.

Your participation in this survey is voluntary. You may refuse to answer questions, skip questions or quit the survey at any time.

There are no direct benefits to you for being in the study, however your answers will help us come up with ways to better help people who are retiring. As a thank you for your help you will receive a copy of the survey results as well as the Retirement Collection eBook, which includes 10 retirement guides.

Any time information is collected there is a small risk of loss of privacy. Every effort will be made to keep your information private; however, this cannot be guaranteed. There are no other known risks involved in participating in this study other than those that are part of daily life.

Your survey answers will be stored securely with SurveyMonkey.com and then downloaded and stored on a password protected device. Any personal information about you will be kept in a different file from your survey answers to protect your privacy.

Since you will receive a thank you gift, when you finish the survey, you will get a link to a separate website from the survey to give us information about where to send the study results and eBook.
