Showing results for "Money for Life" in Ageing

What will your 100-year life look like? Does the thought of working for 60 or 70 years fill you with dread? Or can you see the potential for a more stimulating future as a result of having so much extra time? Many of us have been raised on the traditional notion of a three-stage approach to our working lives: education, followed by work and then retirement. But this well-established pathway is already beginning to collapse.

Baby Boomers are reinventing retirement just as they have so many other aspects of their lives. They will live longer and be healthier than their parents and grandparents, and they plan to remain relevant, be fulfilled, and leave legacies. Many will continue to work well into their 70s and 80s, some because they want to, others because they need to.

Moving is no fun. Neither is getting rid of stuff. And both jobs get harder as we get older. So, when those over a certain age-say, in the last third of life-are looking to downsize and move all at the same time, many will conclude, "I'll just stay put, thank you very much."
