Not Your Mother’s Retirement

Contributing Author

Award finalist for “Best Retirement Book of 2017”

Retirement experts offer advice on financial planning, work, health, travel, lifelong learning, volunteering, being single, caregiving, spirituality and volunteerism.

Here’s an excerpt:

“Experts predict there will be all sorts of communities where people with the same values or interests will live. That could be dog lovers, Grateful Dead fans, gourmands, political or environmental activists, or cruise-ship enthusiasts. There’s already a place for nudists that is fleshing out an assisted-living project!”

I wrote the section on housing. I discuss different options, including multigenerational housing, cohousing, shared housing, living on or near a college campus or at home as part of the Village Movement.

I offer resources for each model and questions to ask before deciding your next move.
