Reinventing Retirement


A growing number of people over 60 are planning to stay in the workforce, on their own terms. People understand that they have options. They may continue in their careers, or change careers and pursue new ones. These careers may involve full-time or part-time work, and have major or minor responsibilities. Now that 60-somethings have more time, they may pursue other than work interests and activities also. For example, three former high school teachers are transitioning to new lifestyles. Maria in her early sixties tutors in final year mathematics and is developing her tutor business. Lucy, aged 64, provides lodging and meals for international students whom she loves to share their experiences with her own. Jacquie, in her late sixties, makes jewellery in her small home and provides weekend care for pets of owners who go away. What do you think about these role models? Are their options maybe options for you?
