Unfocused |
This book is essentially a sampling of retirees' random thoughts. It lacks discrimination as to their quality or relevance. It offers no guiding themes although in a misguided attempt at balance it presents pairs of contradictory opinions.
On the plus side, the book made decent fuel, and helped to get some damp firewood going in my wood stove.
Bolles' book and Zelinski's book are much more useful. |

Great Gift! |
|
I gave this book to my dad and he LOVED it. It was a fun read that reminded him that he is not alone in dealing with retirement. He liked the sense of community that came with reading the book. I recommend it as a great gift for a newly retired person. |

The perfect first book for someone about to retire |
I love giving this book to my "soon-to-be-retired" friends. It is a fun, informative, balanced look at the issues people face when they retire. I get tons of thanks everytime I give it to a friend.
What I love about the book is that it does not take the topic so seriously that it scares the reader, and yet, is not too casual about serious issues that the reader will be facing.
A great balance! |

Fun book |

This is a fun book to read...would have been a little more interesting read with information placed amongst the testimonies but I enjoyed the book. |
