Check out Thrive in Retirement!

This new book comes out in February, but I wanted to share it with you NOW, so you can pre-order and be ready to make the changed YOU need to in the new year, for YOUR retirement!

Discover the three secrets to happiness--

and much more--

in the later years of life.

Synopsis:

Never before in human history have so many people lived for decades beyond their working years. 10,000 Americans turn 65 each day, and their average life expectancy is another 20 years--and many will live longer. But will they just live or have a meaningful life? The truth is that many--if not most--people approaching the latter years do not have a plan, much less a strategy to thrive instead of just survive. 

Packed with information based on research as well as common-sense wisdom, here are some examples of what readers will discover:

  *  How retiring at the wrong time increases the likelihood of dying 89%.

  *  What can delay Alzheimer's onset an average of 9 years.

  *  How everything that makes you happy comes in just 3 forms.

  *  Which partner is most likely to initiate divorce after decades of marriage and why.

Review:

So you THOUGHT you had it all planned out in your head for retirement. Guess what- you are WAY wrong, and it will cost you- not only in money, but in life expectancy AND in retirement happiness! Eric made me totally reevaluate the plans I had for retirement! Even though I had already made some changes, that went with this formula, there was so much more to rethink! It's not JUST money- it's what you will DO, and how old you will BE. If you want a fulfilled retirement, you need to start now, making changes, so that everything can be in place for you. And if you can't, then you need to start making the changes as soon as you DO retire. It's not too late- follow the formula in the book, and YOUR retirement can be amazing too! 

Even if you aren't close to retirement yet, you NEED to read this book, to set yourself up for 15 years from now!
