[.uk] Kiplinger's Retire & Thrive, Fourth Edition: How More ... (ISBN 1419538233)



Practical advice and anecdotes:
An earlier edition of the Otterbourg book helped me to sort out my own retirement plans. His mix of practical advice and anecdotes from successful retirees gave me the confidence to consider stepping out on my own to pursue, independently, my lifelong interests in writing and photography. Otterbourg's book is full of down-to-earth stuff, written from the perspective of someone who also once decided to make the leap, and fleshed out with a wide variety of stories from other thriving retirees. A thoughtful take on what ought to be on the minds of those of us considering retirement.


Issues and Anecdotes:
Otterbourg entertains and informs us by presenting fifty anecdotes of live people organized around eight major retirement issues, e.g., careers, planning and volunteerism. This book helps us answer the question, what will I do if I retire? It is a wonderful companion to a book on financial planning for retirement. Michael C. Thomas, PhD (Cary, NC)


Retirement? Read This!:
As a 73 year old executive coach with my own business (WRS Management Consultants) I have recommended Retire and Thrive to many of my clients who are in their 50's and beyond. The book and its message are consistently well received and very useful. This fourth edition promises to be even more successful with the swelling ranks of Baby Boomers! Bill Stanley


Not practical enough:
I did not find this book to have very much practical information and I did not find the anecdotes very interesting nor relevant.


Retire and Thrive by Robert K. Otterbourg:
Life is a river and we are all in it. Sometimes you swim with the current, sometimes against it. With Robert K. Otterbourg as your guide, you can navigate the shoals and rapids and turn what used to be seen as the end of an active life into an ongoing adventure. Consider it an investment in your future. It's more than worht your time. -- Garner Simmons Author and Screenwriter Woodland Hills, CA
