How To Retire Rich Launches Investor Outreach Program

Online, May 27, 2010 (Newswire.com) - HowtoRetireRich.org announced today that it is kicking off a proactive marketing outreach program to help retail investors to realize benefits of saving and investing. The move is in response to the continued hesitation by retail investors to get back into the market amidst global economic uncertainty. The unemployment rate in the United States has remained high, even as the economy has shown strong signs of improvement. "Individual investors can follow the lead of big mutual funds and hedge funds", partner Gerald Alexander said in an interview. "We're trying to tell investors that their size and flexibility can actually help them beat the market".

How to Retire Rich recently launched an personal finance blog to help current and prospective investors add value to their retirement planning. This will coincide with their efforts to make trading easier to understand. "Many individual investors have avoided trading stocks because they believe it is rigged, or can be gamed by the big guys", Alexander continued. "Mutual fund managers have to buy and sell in large volumes. That simply isn't the case for retail investors". The company also plans to expand its network through personal financial advisors and registered representatives.

Mr. Alexander began his career as a personal financial advisor in 2000, with what was then known as American Express Financial Advisors, now Ameriprise Financial. HRR has particular expertise in technical analysis. How to Retire Rich hopes to help individuals use both technical and fundamental analysis when planning their retirements. The web has become a leading destination for financial news and analysis, and company has received national recognition for quality and performance.

How to Retire Rich partnered with Thinking About Incorporated in 2009 to deliver relevant investment and retirement resources to small-time investors.

Like other investing resources, How to Retire Rich has grown despite the stock market correction of 2008-2009. Since then, HRR has seen rapid expansion in both web traffic and investor interest. The recent fiscal crisis in Greece, collapsing Euro, and recent pullback of global markets has left many retail investors searching for information. "The sluggish economy over the past year and a half may have actually helped us", Alexander continued. "Investors around the world are seeking ways to capitalize on the recent market volatility".

How to Retire Rich is optimistic that their rapid growth will continue even as the global economy improves. Mr. Alexander feels that the recession increased the awareness of the need for flexibility in retirement planning and strategy. The blog is designed to not only educate those new to investing, but help those who have traded stocks for their own accounts in the past learn best practices in technical analysis, fundamental analysis, and day-trading.
