Who Really "Retires" Anymore?

"Retirement" no longer means to "retire" from the working world and disappear to inactivity. Instead, mount a brand new set of tires ("re-tire" -- excuse the pun!) and drive. The "who-what-when-why-how" of retirement is changing so quickly, it will soon be known by a new term... "post-rat-race."

Who is retiring, and when? More people, at a younger age.

What you do is up to you, of course. But it's no longer likely to revolve around the recliner, the remote, and a lower standard of living.

Why do folks retire? Not to collect a small pension check until they die. People are not calling it "quits" and retiring "from"...

They are retiring "to" something better. Thanks to the Internet, new doors are available. Open them with gusto, now. Start the first day of the rest of your life.

What will you retire to?

"We all want to retire, we do not necessarily want to be 'retirees.'"

"When I finally grow up, who do I want to be, and what do I want to do? What outlets are there that I can pour all these years of learning into?"

"It's time to really retire when what you are retiring TO is more interesting and compelling than what you are retiring FROM."
