Editorial Reviews

Review

"Covers an impressive number of issues. This book is really an instruction manual for retirement."-Washington Post


Product Description

The most comprehensive guide to planning for retirement is now completely revised and updated.

It used to be that work ended at age 65 and life slowed to a predictable pace. Not anymore!

From deciding where to live, what to do, when to do it, and more, The New Retirement will help readers plan for and achieve their retirement dreams.

The all-new revisions to this updated edition include:

-more than 30 new recommendations for specific communities to consider for retirement, plus updated home prices and cost-of-living figures for existing communities

-updated financial and tax information

-new niche lifestyles including club living, spa living, communities that are also cities, and moving where there is free land

-an updated travel section

-an expanded section on second homes

Filled with anecdotes and case studies, and organized in a highly effective format with surveys, questionnaires, and worksheets, this comprehensive book covers every aspect of planning an ideal retirement.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a Gift!, November 8, 2007
I received this book as a gift for my 55th birthday. It's perfect! It looks at all facets of retirement - money, where to live, working after retiring, travel, health, volunteering, even the psychology of retirement (such as renegotiating roles with a spouse or significant other). It's all-inclusive, yet specific.

I liked the way the authors talked about places to retire, and described both strengths and weaknesses (I have to disagree with the previous review about it being a pile of real estate brochures - one chapter deals with where to live within the US and one chapter deal with living outside of the US). The other eight chapters deal with other important topics relative to retirement.

This book is the kind of gift that I'll use over the next several years.

5.0 out of 5 stars Even Better!, August 16, 2007
I purchased the first edition of this book when it came out in 2004, and was delighted to see that a new edition has been published. The book is completely updated and revised, and has all the information about health, relocation, working in retirement, finances, leisure time activities, finding a second career, travel, worksheets, and questionnaires. It really is the "Ultimate Guide to the Rest of Your Life," and by far the best retirement book out there.

5.0 out of 5 stars A comprehensive look at retirement, December 29, 2007
By J. Korolkoff (North Potomac, MD United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This excellent book looks not only at the financial, but the social and emotional aspects of retiring. I found the chapter on reprogramming your time especially helpful. I have a financial background and I think the chapters dealing with financial matters were right on point and well researched. Anyone looking for one stop shopping on the topic of retirement planning will find this book essential.
