This book is different from most other retirement books.  It is NOT about saving enough money to retire comfortably, maximizing your investment income, or estate planning.  A fulfilling retirement is about more than money.  It is about making the most of a major change in your life after work.  It is about doing what makes you happy and taking on challenges you didn’t have time for while you were working. 

Retire Like a Pro is also unique in its approach.  It is based on a combination of evidence-based information from retirement research, interviews with retirees at different stages of their retirement, and my own experiences attempting to navigate this unfamiliar territory.  These rich sources of information are distilled into practical tips and strategies that are easy to use.  See for yourself by checking out an excerpt from the chapter on Travel.
