55 and Counting: A Guide for Pre-Retirement

More about the book

Focuses on the years before retirement, in contrast with most books about retirement. How to shape what may seem like "the last chapter" of one's working life into "the first chapter" of one's new identity and a satisfying life after retirement. Instead of focusing primarily on finances and investing, this book examines all aspects of one's life: changing identity, expanding friendships, valuing time, connecting one's past to one's future, developing a network of care, being mindful of health, starting to think about future housing preferences, planning a smooth transition. In addition to all of this, includes financial planning.
