This seminar looks at ways you can assist others in re-thinking their lives in preparation for retirement, as they transition to retirement, and once they retire. We reluctantly use the term retirement because we reject the old perception that retirement is a time of disengaging and slowing down. We are advocating a re-imagining of life.
As the year 2011 began on Jan. 1, the oldest members of the Baby Boom generation celebrated their 65th birthday. In fact, on that day, today, and for every day for almost two decades, 10,000 baby boomers will reach age 65. The aging of this huge cohort of Americans (26% of the total U.S. population are Baby Boomers) will dramatically change the composition of the country.
More significantly, Baby Boomers are redefining aging. People are healthier, more educated, active, and are simply not ready to “retire” and sit home to watch t.v. For some it may be an encore career. For others it may be travel or learning new skills. For others it could be caring for family members.
We will read a number of articles as well as chapters from the book, Live Smart After 50!, look at a variety of tools and activities available to assist others in this exploration process by going through the process themselves, and discuss how to integrate all this into practice.
