A fresh look at retirement, October 23, 2006

Jane Newhagen (Key West, FL United States) -

This review is from: How to Love Your Retirement: Advice from Hundreds of Retirees (Hundreds of Heads Survival Guides) (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.

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.

"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.

Here are some VERY IMPORTANT things that some people don't know about Washington DC. It has its [own] independent constitution(lex fori) and has it's own flag. A nice obelisk too….

***The three red stars of the Washington DC flag represent a city state.
*Washington DC(military)
*Vatican City(spiritual)
*City of London(financial)

-Some of the founders were Freemasons
-King James changed the Bible in 1611
-Freemasons use the King James Bible.
-General Cornwallis was a Freemason

LOL, you're a fool. The evidence has been in front of you all your life right in plain sight.

How's that All Seeing Eye of Freemasonry on your one dollar bill?

@rosenoirex

Yup! Larry Bates even made a book called New Economic Disorder.

He's the reason I started looking into buying silver.

@patriotadEEUU I have to check out that book. As to buying silver and gold, even then it isn't guaranteed wealth in this corrupt Corporation of the United States. Did you hear what happened to Gerald Celente, one who always recommended buying gold?

@rosenoirex

I didn;t hear about about what happened to Celente. And quite honest, I don't care.

He was the expert in all of this.

Let me guess, he didn't have his physical gold with him. Physical gold, not paper gold.

@patriotadEEUU Yeah, he didn't have the gold with him. I just felt bad for him for losing so much money in a bad deal. =/

The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 is unconstitutional, the National Security Act of 1947 and amendments of 1949 are unconstitutional, the Patriot Act is unconstitutional. All of these must be abolished. Corporate person hood must be abolished. We need to over rule them all and restore our democratic republic. There are of course other things, but these are the big ones.

freedoms of right for basic needs now relied on a system that forbade anyother type of trading except for print up currency. freedoms were now abolished by the birth of a needed government to balance out poverty.. no more poor if middle class pays for welfare.. the thief didnt participae in that regime. in fact he had enough power=influence to create bank acts.

@alphakid42 Dude, all you said is correct. Doing it is quite another matter. They confuse us with wars, our daily lives revolve around work, we have been put to sleep. Change will happen, maybe in my time maybe not. I do have a son, who iam educating about this subject. They will NOT go quietly, i guarantee that. Peace…
