Welcome to retirement. How do you plan to spend the next 30 years of your life?
Yes, that's the amount of time the average adult is likely to spend in the so-called retirement stage of life.
Author Mitch Anthony has a concept called Retirementality, that has taken the traditional notion of retirement and quite literally turned it on it's proverbial head.
What, exactly, is Retirementality? Thanks for asking. Mitch says it's about helping his readers to welcome a whole new way of retirement planning.
If you acquire this new mind-set, you will have the ability to achieve the freedom to pursue life goals, at your own pace, and on your own terms. Here's the best part. You can get started at any age.
The author gives readers a brand-new blueprint for retirement. Anthony argues that a life well lived after retirement should closely resemble life before retirement, filled with friends, family, work, travel, and more.

Boomers spent $100 billion on clothes last year. "But you'd never know it" says fashion guru, Sherrie Mathieson.
The result is Forever Cool, a guide for those who are asking, "How can I look great and still be age-appropriate?"
"Boomers, stop wondering why your kids insist on being dropped off one-block from their destination. Does your style, or lack there of, have your kids denying they are part of your gene-pool? Sure, the grandkids still "hang" with you, but that's because you spoil'em rotten. Your big kids have their own money, so now you and your togs are history."
"Guys, stop jacking your belt up to your arm-pits, forget that awful "comb-over", tuck-in that shirt you "think" is hiding your "whale of a belly". Gals, the prom is waaaaaaay over, so update your "head-helmet" hairstyle. Don't dress like your teenager, and wear clothing styles that flatter the real you."
Sherrie's affordable tips help boomers be stylish, practical, and utterly cool. Read "Forever Cool" so you will be.
