Is is before or after retiring? Well before retirement, one of the best tips I've learnt is that you need to learn how to manage your expenses so that they for within your budget as much as possible. This way, you can have enough savings for either investment or the expenses you will incur after retiring.

Post retirement, I love your advice about asking for discounts, though I don't know if there's any store that offers a special discount for retirees.

Learning about money management is best done while you are still young and earning money, although it's never late and can be done after retirement too, but it's easier to apply earlier in life so when you retire, you can live and spend as you wish.

You know that you want to save for retirement. You may even have started to save some money in an IRA or 401(k) plan. But if you're like most Americans, you're still struggling to save enough for the future.

This is where money management comes in. Here are some money saving tips for retirement:

Pay off high-interest debt first. One way to reduce your long-term costs is to pay down your highest interest debt first — credit cards, car loans and other loans with high interest rates. This can save you hundreds or thousands of dollars each year in interest payments alone.

Don't buy stuff on credit cards. Credit card bills can add up quickly, and most people carry balances at least partially because they don't know how much they'll spend during the month. But carrying a balance on a credit card can actually increase your overall cost of borrowing because it increases your interest payments and makes it more difficult to pay off the balance before it balloons out of control. Instead, put cash down whenever possible when buying things on credit, whether it's a new pair of shoes or something else altogether (like paying off a few debts).

Track your spending. There are several ways to track your spending, including tracking what you spend on your debit card or credit card, or using a spreadsheet or online budgeting tool. If you don’t know where your money goes, then how can you possibly make sure that it will last until retirement?

Use a retirement calculator. These calculators will help you see what kind of returns (on average) you’ll need to get from your investments so that they match up with how much time is left before retirement age (when Social Security kicks in). They’re also great for seeing if there are any issues with your savings plan — for example, if your plan has too much risk or not enough growth potential.

Don't overspend during retirement! It's easy to get caught up in spending more than we should during our working years, but don't do that once we hit our golden years! Save as much as possible.

Retirement is something that we cannot escape. It is always a time of rest depending on what we have put in place before. While some may see it as a time to enjoy all what they have laboured for, other will see it as a time of hardship because they haven't made a better plan.

We need to make sure we start planning for our retirement right from the day one that will start working. This will make it much easier for us when we get to the old age. The following are the ways by which we can effectively plan for our retirement age.

We need to start investing in ourselves and also in some things. It may be stocks, shares and some other things that are worth investing in. Investing in this is not the only way to secure our future days of retirement. We can as well work on ourselves by making sure that we are eorjthy of investing on. It may be in form of skill or even education.

We also need to make sure we spend on things that are of much importance. We don't need to spend recklessly during that moment. We need to be saving than spending.

These are all good tips. If you don't read books you can also read magazines. My late husband used to subscribe to Money Magazine. I am online most of the time and I personally like a website called NerdWallet. Also, in the USA, there is the AARP – it's an organization that provides advice about retirement. Get on their mailing list.

Another tip: If you have a regular job with a steady paycheck, when you pay your bills, be sure to PAY YOURSELF. Put a certain amount of money aside and don't spend it no matter what! Even if your company has a retirement plan, make your own separate retirement savings account. WHY? Because you don't know if your company will go out of business, will start laying off people and not give them there retirement benefits, etc.
