Be happy and live well in your retirement

This book will show you how to be happy, healthy and financially secure when you're 50 plus.

For the last 4 years, this web site has been helping people handle the transition from full time work to some form of retirement. During that time we have spoken to a lot of people experiencing  the journey and a lot of professionals working in the retirement field.



Here is a very typical story –

Peter was a successful sales manager who retired and thought he would catch up on all the golf his job had kept him from playing. His wife, Mary, also quit her part time job.

After 6 months of regular golf, Peter started to get bored. They did a 3 month trip and after that Peter got more bored. It wasn’t so much of a problem for Mary as she still had her network of friends, which she had regular contact with.

Peter was used to managing a team of people and found in his new life that there was only one woman who could benefit from his management skills.  Not surprisingly, after running a house for 30 years, Mary wasn’t too excited being told how she could improve her performance.

Their relationship became strained, Peter suffered a loss of purpose and was bored and the “relaxed, stress free” lifestyle they were expecting, just wasn’t happening.  Fortunately they got some help and made some changes.

There are dozens of variation on this story. Some end well, others end in divorce, after 20 - 30 years of marriage.



No one told me!

The reason that many couples experience unexpected problems when one or both retire, is that they are not told that the 50s and 60s are a period of great change in our lives.  On the contrary, what we are told is that life in retirement will be relaxed and easy.


 

Think about this:

When you both retire, is this going to be the first time in your relationship where you will be together 24/7, without any kids or work issues to focus on? 

Just the two of you… Is that going to be blissful – or a bit difficult at times?

Do you think that you’ll have to work on a few issues?

Would it be useful to have a really good guide book?
Because most of us are not expecting many challenges at this time of life, there are a lot of people who are surprised when they are confronted with issues like :

  • Loss of purpose and identity            
  • Boredom
  • Lack of funds
  • Relationship and sexual tensions
  • The death of partners, friends and relatives
  • Deteriorating health
  • Depression
  • Separation and divorce

Don’t you agree, that if we know in advance that we are going to be challenged by something difficult, we’ll handle it much better? It’s when we aren’t prepared, that things can get ugly.

That’s the reason why we decided to produce a book which looked at the major issues that most of us are likely to face as we live through the challenges that the 50s & 60s throw at us. Our book is called “The Rest of Your Life – How to make it as good as you want” and it covers subjects like:

The Rest of Your Life: how to make it as good as you want is a new book which is as close to a life-manual for people in their 40s, 50s and 60s as you could get. It has been compiled with experts from a multitude of disciplines, all of which crucially influence this period of your life, all with the intention to making them your very best years yet.

I thought the book was the best of the bunch that I have seen over the past few years.
Its wide ranging generalist approach is a tangible asset for all retirees.

This is the perfect book for anyone who is 40 and over and wants to get a heads up on potential future issues in the second half of their life. This book should be mandatory reading for all twenty year olds to make them aware that planning from the age of twenty will make life at 50 and 60 not only more bearable but will ensure a high quality of life. This e-book is not only great reading but the video links and resources that come with it make it invaluable.
