Summary

Retirement should be the best chapter of your life. So why does it feel so hard to get right?

For the first time in decades, the days are yours. No boss, no timetable, no one else's priorities. It's a rare chance to rediscover who you are and do the things you've always put off—learn something new, travel, retrain, deepen old friendships and make new ones.

Yet retirement is also one of the biggest upheavals we ever face. The loss of routine, of status, of the identity that came with work can leave even the most confident people adrift. If you've found the adjustment harder than you expected, you are far from alone.

Retirement is the guide you need for this transition. It tackles the questions that really matter: how to cope when your old role disappears, how to reshape your closest relationships, how to manage your money with confidence — and, above all, how to find fresh meaning and purpose in the years ahead.

Retirement today comes with a bewildering array of choices — including whether to stop working at all. Find a clear path through them, so you can decide what you want and take charge of what comes next. Experts agree that's the single most important ingredient for a good retirement.

Don't just retire. Start something special.
