Great Gift!!!,

This review is from: How to Love Your Retirement (Paperback)
I bought this for someone that I used to work with. He just retired a few days prior to his retirement party. I retired last year, so can relate to the stuff in this book. The book went over very well. I'd even say if someone didn't like to read much, that they would probably like this book also, since it is full of paragraph length stories and comments. You could read it all at once, or take your time. No need to remember the story! I only got a chance to read a few stories out of it. I wanted to read more(and I'm one of those that doesn't read books much. I'm always reading stuff on the internet though... lol), but it was a very busy week. Over all... I'm glad I purchased it... I'd definitely recommend it.

Looking ahead -- and back,
By R. Post - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: How to Love Your Retirement: Advice From Hundreds Of Retirees (Paperback)
"How to LOVE Your Retirement" is the kind of self-help book I can really enjoy. Divided into topics such as timing, finances, health issues, selection of domicile, hobbies, and adjustments at home, it is a series of vignettes, from one-liners to paragraphs, submitted by those in the business of retirement -- the retirees, themselves. The book's success is a product of the personal quality of those thoughts, many funny, some cautionary, but all insightful and enjoyable to browse. It gives those of us in retirement good ideas to mull over, and for the pre-retirement folk it offers inspiration.

Helpful and Uplifting,
By Avid Reader "Barb" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: How to Love Your Retirement: Advice From Hundreds Of Retirees (Paperback)
My son gave us this book as a gift and I was sure I didn't need it. Then I picked it up and got hooked. It's not your typical book. It is made up of hundreds of tips, stories and advice from many other "normal" people who have been through this same stage of life.This book is special because it's readable, is not focused on "golden years," but the next vibrant stage in our lives, and it's practical. I walked away from a quick read with many good ideas, approaches to consider and tricks to try. It was a great gift and is an excellent book. 27 of 29 people found the following review helpful

A fresh look at retirement,
By Jane Newhagen - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: How to Love Your Retirement: Advice From Hundreds Of Retirees (Paperback)
Has everything been said about retirement? Maybe, but a lot of it bears repeating and How to Love Your Retirement gives the subject a fresh look through the words of hundreds of retirees. It's kind of like asking friends for advice, only who has 100 or more friends to ask?I've heard some of the advice before -- plan your finances, look after your health, and keep your mind working -- but have I always listened? Somehow it makes a difference when the words come from personal experience rather than an academic study. As far as I know, no study has come up with down home wisdom like, "The most important thing is to eat prunes," or "There is a temptation to become an alcoholic, so we have to watch that." There's a section on life coaching exercises and plenty of web site references on a variety of subjects. I'm planning to give it to several family members who are approaching retirement age. |
