This book shows readers how to turn retirement into one of the best chapters of their lives. In their own words, forty inspiring retirees explain how they overcame the challenges they faced in their quest for lasting happiness and fulfillment. Solving the Retirement Puzzle is for everyone who wants his or her retirement life to be rich with meaning and purpose. Most retirement books deal with either financial planning or choosing a new locale. But these subjects alone will not ensure success. This book addresses all the issues that lead to a successful retirement: freedom, values, spirituality, financial security, relationships, physical and mental health, life changes, and self-esteem. The inspirational anecdotes and practical advice help retirees learn how to overcome the surprises that retirement brings and find the lasting happiness and fulfillment they seek.
