Review by Diana Witt for The New Retirement: Revised and Updated: The Ultimate Guide to the Rest of Your Life

I received this book as a gift for my 55th birthday. It’s perfect! It looks at all facets of retirement – money, where to live, working after retiring, travel, health, volunteering, even the psychology of retirement (such as renegotiating roles with a spouse or significant other). It’s all-inclusive, yet specific.I liked the way the authors talked about places to retire, and described both strengths and weaknesses (I have to disagree with the previous review about it being a pile of real estate brochures – one chapter deals with where to live within the US and one chapter deal with living outside of the US). The other eight chapters deal with other important topics relative to retirement.
This book is the kind of gift that I’ll use over the next several years.

I have been looking at a lot of books recently in preparation for retirement, but none has been so comprehensive and well-written or answered so many of my questions (even questions I never thought about) as this one. I especially liked the “report cards” on retirement locations and the way the financial parts are written in such an understandable way. The book really helped me think about all aspects of retirement, including what I will do during retirement. And it addresses all sorts of retiring people, including single/divorced/widowed individuals, which is just what I needed. I now realize that finding a place to retire to is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to retirement planning. After reading this book, I feel much more confident that I can devise a good plan that will guide me for the rest of my life. -

I purchased the first edition of this book when it came out in 2004, and was delighted to see that a new edition has been published. The book is completely updated and revised, and has all the information about health, relocation, working in retirement, finances, leisure time activities, finding a second career, travel, worksheets, and questionnaires. It really is the “Ultimate Guide to the Rest of Your Life,” and by far the best retirement book out there. -

This excellent book looks not only at the financial, but the social and emotional aspects of retiring. I found the chapter on reprogramming your time especially helpful. I have a financial background and I think the chapters dealing with financial matters were right on point and well researched. Anyone looking for one stop shopping on the topic of retirement planning will find this book essential. - Comment Feed for this Post

The New Retirement is mostly geared toward couples which I am not but it is still helpful in sorting out all the retirement options. I have recommended this book to everyone I know who is within a few years of retirement. Retirement is such an important part of our lives. I hope everyone takes some serious time to research and to plan this very exciting opportunity. I found this book to be a great way to start!
