Retirement is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be yourself and do
what you want to do. It offers new possibilities for personal growth
through learning, retraining, travelling and friendship. But it is also
one of the biggest transitions we face, and brings huge psychological
and emotional challenges. It's not surprising that many people struggle
with the adjustment to a different pace of life.
Not Fade Away guides the reader through these challenges: dealing with
the loss of status and routine, reinventing relationships, managing
money, and above all, finding new meaning and purpose. It brings
together expert advice and insights from people retiring now, who speak
from the heart about the lessons they've learned and the new sources of
fulfilment they've discovered. By cutting a clear path through the maze
of choices on offer for people retiring today - which may or may not
involve giving up work completely - Not Fade Away inspires you to make
up your own mind and take control of your future. And that, experts
agree, is the key to a good retirement.
