Retirement: How Not To End Up Tired, Bored and Lonely
You have retired, and it is not what your expected.
• Has your sense of purpose disappeared with your job?
• Is your spouse telling you to stop hanging around the house?
• Has your family moved on while you were at work?
• All that money and why am I still so lonely?
• Ah SH*T - Now what do I do?
Fear not, this is all normal and expected. It is called real life rather than the marketing hype from financial houses wanting your money.
This book takes you step by step in seeing yourself and your world around you with a new vision, a “paradigm shift”, so you can choose the path that gives you pleasure, purpose,
and tribal involvement.
The book is a must-read for spouses of retirees to gain a better understanding of the severe impact that retirement has on their partner.

Happy Retirement!
A great book to aid in the transition to retirement for those who have spent many years in a demanding career. A variety of suggestions for living with purpose are offered as well as a sensible fitness and diet plan. Worthwhile for those ready to sail off into the golden years.
