Some of the Reasons Why Retirement Rocks from my New Book Coming Soon:
When you plan for retirement and then experience retirement fully, you get to achieve remarkable personal growth and higher consciousness, two elements of happiness extremely difficutl to experience in the typical workplace.
You get to find out that if you want to live a long and happy life, you must forget how old you are. Indeed, this gets more important the older you get.
Retirement allows you to get your priorities straight. No one on his or her death bed ever said, "I wish I would have spend more time in the office."
From retiree Bill Kalmar: "The best part [of retirement] is observing my neighbors drive off to work in the morning knowing that that their day will be filled with jerks, brainless and endless meetings, jerks, vendor lunches where you hold your breath just waiting for the sales pitch until you regurgitate your pasta, more jerks and the eventual company reorganization of the section that was just reorganized last month! Retirement? I'm lovin' it!"
