Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

The most comprehensive guide to planning for retirement is now completely revised and updated.

It used to be that work ended at age 65 and life slowed to a predictable pace. Not anymore!

From deciding where to live, what to do, when to do it, and more, The New Retirement will help readers plan for and achieve their retirement dreams.

The all-new revisions to this updated edition include:

-more than 30 new recommendations for specific communities to consider for retirement, plus updated home prices and cost-of-living figures for existing communities

-updated financial and tax information

-new niche lifestyles including club living, spa living, communities that are also cities, and moving where there is free land

-an updated travel section

-an expanded section on second homes

Filled with anecdotes and case studies, and organized in a highly effective format with surveys, questionnaires, and worksheets, this comprehensive book covers every aspect of planning an ideal retirement.
