by Donna M. Bennett (Author)
There is a new generation of retirees. In fact, the definition of retiree: "A person who has retired from full-time work" does not fit the population of baby boomers now in their 50s and 60s. There is no longer a 'one size fits all' for this age group or the generation just ahead and just behind them. Since there are no longer 'lock-step' approaches or answers to post-career life, many people fear they will lose the quality of life they have known, including their identities and roles in society. This book offers a thoughtful, intentional and proactive approach to exploring, planning, and choosing a life and legacy for one's later years that is individualized and unique to each person.
