1.0 out of 5 stars Superficial Overview
A quick tour through some issues in retirement, aimed for the busy professional without a clear idea of how to switch from working to not working. Short impressions rather than thoughtfully laid out issues. Other books do it better. A disappointment.

That Richard Carlson lent his name to the front of this book, prompted me to buy it. I am both annoyed and disappointed. The book might be better titled '200 unimaginative words on several aspects of retirement'.

I have had more fun reading annual financial reports. Not an original thought anywhere, it makes a Readers Digest book summary seem like deep research.

Happily, the other book I bought the same day was 'How to Retire, Happy, Wild and Free' by Ernie Zelinski. A liberating book, one that may transform your approach to retirement. If I ever meet Ernie I shall count it a special day.
