Enjoying the rewards of retirement
It’s no secret, after the age of 50, thoughts often turn to retirement
IT STANDS to reason then you need to ask yourself one very important question, so you make the most of this special time in your life: “What will my life look like, post-retirement?”
For some, it will simply be enough to do absolutely nothing!
After the fast pace of working life, it might well be a relief to slow down and smell the roses.
A clearer calendar of commitments and the time to do things at your own pace can be exactly what you need, come retirement.
For others, who are so embedded with the drive to achieve, retirement might mean swapping the pace of the working world for the pace of the hobby or sporting arena.
There might be time for four games of golf a week instead of one and those who never had the time to devote to a treasured hobby will look forward to filling their days with these tasks.
For some, retirement equals the long-awaited opportunity to travel. That big wide world, which has been out of reach for so long, suddenly becomes closer.
The chance to explore and witness some of the wonders of the world can be a truly memorable gift to yourself, post-retirement.
