    June 29, 2009 | 6:17 pm

    In order to understand the value of money, estimates made using a retirement income calculator always have to be projected back from the future to current day dollars as if you were receiving income as of today.

Understanding yourself when you are playing a "New Game"
 
Review Date: February 2, 2009
Reviewer: Mary Fletcher,
Everyone I have ever talked to could not wait to retire. Then, after a while, when the travel is more tiring than fun and the postponed home projects are complete -- the real question of retirement is -- Now what do I do?
This book provides a profound guide for this unique time of life when the rules of "the game" no longer apply. A must read to improve your relationships with those you love(now that you have the time) and more importantly to improve your relationship with yourself.
A "Must Read" for Retired People/People Thinking About Retirement
 
Review Date: July 10, 2008
Reviewer: Dale C. Woolley, Costa Mesa, CA USA
[[ASIN:1601451253 LIFE AFTER WORK: Redefining Retirement - A step-by-step guide to balancing your life and achieving bliss in the Wisdom Years] is a "must read" for people thinking about retirement or even those who have been retired for a few years. I have been giving this book to family, friends and former colleagues, encouraging them (and their spouses) to read it. The feedback has been very rewarding. I have been retired for several years myself and thought I had it all figured out. Than I ran onto "Life After Work" and it opened my eyes to issues that I hadn't "figured out" after all. Even if retirement for you is off in the future sometime, this book can also alter your thinking about life "during" work.
My Review of "Life after Work" from my personal perspective.
 
Review Date: March 17, 2008
Reviewer: John Petas, Orange County, CA
When I made the decision to retire after 34 years with my employer, I focused primarily on the financial side; "Can I afford to retire without working?"
Once that question was resolved with a resounding "Yes"; I asked myself "What am I going to do everyday in retirement". I didn't have a plan other than knowing that I wouldn't have to make the 3-4 hour round trip commute to Los Angeles everyday. Yes, I made a things-to-do-list, but life is more than task assignments. And, I knew that - that alone would not be fulfilling.
Then, I had the opportunity to read "Life after Work" (about 30 days before my actual retirement date), and it helped to put everything into perspective. I no longer had (in retirement): Purpose, a Structure / routine, Power, Authority or a title, People surrounding me all day long.
Reading this book helped me to gain insight and to develop a focus on "Me, my family and my friends" as my priority. Step by step, every emotion that I was feeling was discussed in such a way - that I thought this book was written specifically for me or anyone else that just thought - that everyday is about work. It's been about two months since I retired. I am now focused, enjoying retirement and am happy. I did set a goal to "Relax" for the first several months to develop my purpose for the next third of my life. Not sure I would have achieved a confident approach to a happy retirement as quickly, if I had not read & implemented the approach in "Life after Work".
I strongly recommend that you invest a little time, a few dollars and educate yourself on how to deal with all the unknowns as you transition to retirement.
Life After Work: Redefining Retirement
 
Review Date: May 21, 2007
Reviewer: Marty Miller, Pagosa Springs, CO
Had I read "Life After Work" when I retired 7 years ago, the road to a happy retirement would have been with fewer bumps and bruises along the way. A successful retirement doesn't just happen. It requires thoughtful self examination and adjustment of priorities. Doug Fletcher provides a concise and practical guide in that regard. This book is an excellent resource for the struggling retiree or anyone considering retirement in the near future.
