Who's Packing Your Retirement Parachute?

About the Book

This book will help you focus on how to make your life meaningful and full. It provides guidance about how to make the most from life through the maintenance of your physical health, emotional wellbeing, and a sound financial portfolio. Each chapter offers common sense solutions to help you focus your life on the issues that you think are most important. It is basically a motivation and time management concept. This book is about vision and quality of life objectives that you were not able to achieve in your daily life but that you want to fulfill in the “golden” years of our life. Reading it should give you the desire and discipline to attain any objective that you have ever dreamed about. It provides a road map to success that you may have thought was part of your past and never to be seen again. For most of us, moving from middle age to “senior” citizen comes around the age of 55. The “gold” in the golden years is the opportunity to choose what we will do to fulfill our life dream. Many people would challenge the “gold” in the golden years because along with the freedom of choice and ability to enjoy the rewards of our lifelong efforts comes the illnesses and maladies of old age. We are all familiar with the bad ankles, knees, hips, shoulders, and kidney and heart problems that come with aging. However, these obstacles can be overcome with replacement surgery and raw desire (intestinal fortitude.) The primary objective of this book is to overcome obstacles and challenges to live a life of happiness and bliss in retirement.
