How to Make Retirement The Best Years Of Your Life
b'with\\xa0Robert Laura, Financial Planner, Author of Naked Retirement: Living A Happy, Healthy, & Connected Retirement
Robert discusses topics he details in his book, \\u201cNaked Retirement\\u201d which aims to prepare people for retirement \\u2013 not just the financial aspects of retirement but, more importantly, the non-financial aspects that can make all the difference between a good and a bad retirement. Everyone dreams of retiring, they see it as this Holy Grail when they\\u2019ll finally live the life they\\u2019ve always wanted\\u2026 but sadly, only 40% of all retirees find happiness in retirement. There are tremendous positives to retirement but there is also a dark side\\u2026 with depression, suicide, stress, loss of meaning, etc.
So, in conversation with Steve, Robert shares the essence of his book and lays out the kinds of topics that people heading into retirement should think about ahead of time so they can make the most of their golden years. Robert offers simple exercises and worksheets that people can use to prepare themselves for this next phase of their lives where they are unburdened by distractions such as going to work, taking care of children, etc., and often end up not knowing what to do with all this free time unless they plan ahead.'
