Beschreibung

Retirement isn't broken - but the way we talk about it is. You worked hard, saved diligently, and planned carefully. But why doesn't retirement feel the way you expected? The truth is: financial planning is just the beginning. Real retirement success comes from building a life filled with purpose, connection, and fulfillment. ���� Did You Know? 1. * Nearly 1 in 3 retirees lose their sense of identity after leaving the workforce. * Over 40% report feeling unhappy, even with financial security. * Retirement can increase the risk of depression by up to 40%. * In Retirement Shock, David J. Cook - executive, entrepreneur, psychology graduate, and trained in strategy and innovation at Oxford University- reveals the emotional and psychological shifts that catch so many retirees off guard. With compassion and clarity, he offers a structured guide to building a resilient, meaningful retirement plan beyond the numbers. Through compelling real-life stories, practical frameworks, and an actionable step-by-step guide, Retirement Shock will help you create a retirement that's not just financially secure, but rich in purpose, momentum, and joy. Because real retirement success isn't just about money - it's about the life you create with it.
