Defined Benefits Releases Groundbreaking Book on (you guessed it) Defined Benefit Plans

Del Mar, CA – May 2, 2025 — In a move that underscores the growing demand for financial certainty in uncertain times, DefinedBenefits.com is proud to announce the publication of its landmark book, “Rock-Solid Retirement: The Case for Defined Benefit Plans in a Volatile World.” Tailored for doctors, dentists, medical practice owners, and high-income entrepreneurs, this authoritative guide demystifies the structure and advantages of defined benefit (DB) plans—and provides a powerful alternative to the underperformance and stress commonly associated with defined contribution plans like 401(k)s.

With a rapidly aging professional population and increasing skepticism around market-dependent retirement vehicles, Guide to Defined Benefits arrives at a critical moment. The book explores how defined benefit plans—once thought of as relics of a bygone corporate era—are not only still viable, but increasingly relevant for modern professionals who want to lock in guaranteed income, access powerful tax benefits, and provide meaningful retirement security for themselves and their employees.

> “There’s a growing wave of business owners who are tired of seeing their hard-earned savings fluctuate with every market dip,” said Robert Mowry, Managing Partner of DefinedBenefits.com and co-author of the book. “This book is a response to that frustration. It’s a blueprint for how to reclaim control, reduce stress, and deliver long-term financial stability through a retirement structure that’s both time-tested and future-proof.”

Drawing from over two decades of hands-on experience working with physicians, dental practices, law firms, real estate syndicates, and professional partnerships, the authors provide practical, real-world advice on:

* How defined benefit plans can yield 2x–5x greater retirement savings compared to 401(k)s

* Using DB plans as a tool for tax strategy, retention, and succession planning

* Structuring multi-entity and multi-partner plans with maximum flexibility

* Integrating DB plans with buy-sell agreements and corporate planning

* Case studies showing DB adoption across medical, legal, and service sectors

Unlike traditional retirement literature aimed at HR departments or large institutions, Guide to Defined Benefits speaks directly to the private-practice owner, the solo entrepreneur, and the successful professional who wants more than market volatility and limited contribution caps.

The book also explains how DB plans can support long-term employees who may otherwise face retirement with insufficient savings—making it not only a financial tool, but also a moral and cultural pillar for businesses committed to their teams.

“This is about more than tax deferral,” added Mowry. “It’s about helping professionals build pensions in an age that’s forgotten what a pension means.”

The team at DefinedBenefits.com hopes the book serves as both a wake-up call and a solution roadmap for the thousands of high-earning professionals currently relying on insufficient defined contribution plans.

“Guide to Defined Benefits” is now available for download at www.DefinedBenefits.com and will be distributed through select wealth advisors, retirement planners, and continuing education workshops across the country.
