Product Description |
|
Most of us look forward to our retirement, eagerly anticipating more free time and opportunities to play. But the reality of retirement can be very different. Unexpected challenges may lead us to question who we really are and what we can reasonably expect to accomplish in the remaining years of our lives. Relationships with family and friends may also change, creating confusion and uncertainty. "Retire Smart, Retire Happy" is one of the first books to provide guidance on the psychological and emotional adjustments we make in retirement. Nancy Schlossberg, a psychologists and experienced counsellor, provide tips on coping with its ups and downs and reassures us that retirement can be one of the most fulfilling times of our lives. This book is a valuable read for recent retirees and those about the retire. |

Retiring? Know who you are first. |
|
Schlossberg, I think, hits a few nails on the head. She poses what should be several thought-provoking questions for anyone comptemplating retirement. Her description of the several basic "types" of retirees is, by observation, so accurate it's almost amusing. But, her message is honest, but encouraging. Her examples of several folks who "failed" at retirement, then changed to compensate for their shortcomings and to reevaluate and build on their strengths offer excellent insights of what some of us will have to deal with in moving on. A quick, but enlightening read. |

Great Book for Retirees and Soon to Be Retirees |
|
This is a great book and easy to read. Instead of psychology and theory, she gives a lot of examples. This not only makes it easier to read but illustrates that everyone will experience a different type of retirement. |

Helpful Book |

This is a very helpful little book. Gave my husband and I a lot of information we will be needing. Good advise. I would recommend this book to anyone thinking of retiring and who knows nothing about it. |
