This book is a guide for baby boomers who are about to or have already retired from an all-consuming profession and are terrified. They wake up in the mornings with the vast expanse of the day ahead of them and wonder, What the hell do I do with myself now? It is a major life change, much like getting married or having children. For individuals, such as physicians,lawyers, executives, and others with high-demand professions,retirement (as frightening as it is) is an opportunity to do something else equally as meaningful as the jobs they previously held.
This book will explain why it is what we learn after we know it all that really counts. Many will view this discussion as just common sense, but common sense is illusive at times. The nature of change, balance, aging, health, boredom, solitude, thankfulness,apology, mentoring, volunteering, freedom, and legacy, and the philosophy of investing and the art of piddling is explained in relation to retirement. In depth interviews with physicians, engineers, a major general, a pastor, a CIA division chief, a career counselor, a financial advisor, a nurse/educator and several CEOs and corporate executives were conducted for their retirement experiences, insights and advice.
