Phi Delta Theta FraternityWhat’s been happening: I tell people I'm a wine drinking, golfing, dancing, birding writer. My first book, Living Among Friends, A Boomer's Guide To Housing, will be published in the fall of 2014. I wrote it because of the pending shortage of affordable Senior Housing. Many singles are going to have a rough time having a happy retirement unless there is a major shift in thinking that living alone is preferred vs. living with others. Many people are amazed when I tell them that less than 20% of the population has savings of over $250,000. And, if you are currently 65 and lead a healthy lifestyle, you are likely to live another twenty years, perhaps even more. Though some of us over 65 are no longer "forced" to retire at that age, mandatory retirement still exists for many. If any of this interests you, please ask me for the first section of my book that I will send you for the asking (e-version). YITB. |
