My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Quite a few suggestions/ideas/examples of what people have done with their retirement. As is the current trend, the acknowledgement that retirement often includes a “retirement job” is thoroughly discussed here. The oxymoron of our times. After having read quite a few retirement books over the past few years, I find this one has a very good set of examples, and an interesting set of topics. These included housing, the transition process, hobbies, volunteering, travel, maintaining social connections, etc. This does not really cover finances in retirement, beyond the normal reminder that retirees can still work and need to plan. And the author struck me as having a distinct opinion on some topics, one which I did not always agree with. Nevertheless, I found this quite a good survey covering how retirees can spend their time, and I got some new insights into what I may want to do in the future.
