Publisher Description

How to Retire Happy, Wild, and Free offers inspirational advice on how to enjoy life to its fullest. The key to achieving an active and satisfying retirement involves a great deal more than having adequate financial resources; it also encompasses all other aspects of life - interesting leisure activities, creative pursuits, physical well-being, mental well-being, and solid social support.

In How to Retire Happy, Wild, and Free, bestselling author Ernie J. Zelinski guides you to:

  • Gain courage to take early retirement; in fact, the earlier the better.
  • Put money in proper perspective so that you don't need a million dollars to retire.
  • Generate purpose in your retirement life with meaningful creative pursuits.
  • Follow your dreams instead of someone else's.
  • Take charge of your mental, physical, and spiritual health.
  • Create and maintain great friends - a key ingredient for a great retirement.
  • Above all, make your retirement years the best time of your life.

With its friendly format and positive tone, How to Retire Happy, Wild, and Free offers retirement wisdom that you won't get from your financial advisor. This wisdom will prove to be much more important for creating an active, satisfying, and happy retirement than how much money you have saved.

    " This book was pretty repetitive, but had some good ideas. Basically the theme is to have an active retirement. Don't just sit at home and watch tv. Do things you've always wanted to do, make friends, travel, learn, read, write a book, go on a hot-air balloon ride! As long as you have the money... "

    " Great title, but shallow, basically useless repetition of his previous book, The Joy of Not Working. There are no easy, universal answers. "

    " He could have made his point in a short magazine article. Anyone can pick examples to support their point of view, while ignoring examples that don't. The quotations in the margins of every page were distracting and annoying. "

    " Not much new here - but maybe that's because I've been preparing for retirement and reading up on it already. Have structure, close friends, minimize overhead, engage your mind and body, volunteer, etc etc. "
