Enjoy free re-admission for a year if you buy your ticket directly from us. Tickets purchased directly from the Royal Collection can be transformed into a 1-Year Pass, giving 12 months’ free admission to Windsor Castle. This pass is valid for a year from the date of your first visit.

How do I transform my ticket into a 1-Year Pass?

1. Before you leave the site, please sign and print your name in the spaces provided on the back of your ticket.

2. Hand the ticket to a member of staff, who will stamp and validate(使…生效) it.

3. Keep your ticket for future visits.

Your ticket will only be accepted for re-admission if it has been stamped on the day of your first visit.

Subsequent(隨后的) visits

To gain admission on subsequent visits, your signed and stamped original ticket (now your 1-Year Pass) must be produced on arrival at the ticket counter. You will also be required to provide proof(證據(jù)) of signature, such as a passport, driving licence, or credit card. You will then be given a gift ticket for admission on that day. Children under the age of 18 are not required to show proof of signature.

Alternatively, to guarantee admission you may pre-book your subsequent visits by telephoning the Ticket Sales and Information Office, +44 (0)20 7766 7334. A booking fee applies. Pre-booked tickets will not be posted to you, but can be collected from the ticket counter on the day of your visit on production of your signed and stamped 1-Year Pass and proof of signature.

    The benefits of the 1-Year Pass are not transferable, and your ticket may not under any circumstances be given to another person or re-sold. Any attempted use of the ticket by another party to gain admission automatically cause the ticket invalid.

Free re-admission is always subject to ticket availability and may be unavailable on up to 5 days each year when the site is open to the public. It is not possible to use your 1-Year Pass when the site is closed. Before planning a visit please see the Visit Pages on www.royalcollection.org.uk to check if any dates are excluded and to confirm admission details.

Dates when 1-Year Pass free re-admission is unavailable in 2012:

Saturday 7 April 2012

Sunday 8 April 2012

Monday 9 April 2012

Monday 7 May 2012

Monday 4 June 2012

Please note that gift tickets and tickets booked through a tour operator or ticket agent cannot be transformed into a 1-Year Pass.

Steps to Retire a Millionaire

Having a million-dollar portfolio is a retirement dream for many people. Making that dream come true requires some serious effort. While success is never a sure thing, the steps outlined below will go a long way toward helping you achieve your objective.

61. ____

Vacations, car, kids and all of life's other expenses take a big chunk out of your paycheck. To maximize your savings, you need to minimize your expenses. Buying a home you can afford and living a lifestyle that is below your means and not funded by credit cards are all necessities if you want to boost your savings.

62. ____

If you don't save, you'll never reach your goal. As obvious as this might seems, far too many people never even start to save. If your employer offers a 401(k) plan, enrolling in the plan is a great way to put your savings on autopilot. Simply sign up for the plan and contributions will be automatically taken out of your paycheck, increasing your savings and decreasing your immediate tax liability.

If your employer offers to match your contributions up to a certain percentage, be sure to contribute enough to get the full match. It's like getting a guaranteed return on your investment. Finding the cash to stash may be a challenge, particularly when you're young, but don't let that stop you from pursuing future riches.

63. ____

Studies have shown that the majority of the returns generated by an investment are dictated by the asset-allocation decision. If you are looking to grow your wealth over time, fixed-income investments aren't likely to get the job done, and inflation can take a big chunk out of your savings.

Investing in equities entails more risk, but is also statistically likely to lead to greater returns. For many of us, it's a risk we have to take if want to see our wealth grow. Asset-allocation strategies can help you learn how to make picking the right mix of securities the core of your investing strategy.

64. ___

Part of long-term planning involves accepting the idea that setbacks will occur. If you are not prepared, these setbacks can put a stop to your savings efforts. While you can't avoid all of the bumps in the road, you can prepare in advance to mitigate the damage they can do.

65. ____

Your income should rise as time passes. You'll get raises, you'll change jobs, and maybe you'll get married and become a two-income family. Every time more cash comes in to your pocket, you should increase the amount that you save. The key to reaching your goal as quickly as possible is to save as much as you can.
