AlbakiReads Editorial

A practical workbook for reimagining life beyond a conventional retirement.

Marika Stone approaches later life as a period for choosing new directions rather than simply stepping away from work. The book maps out possibilities including continued employment, second careers, entrepreneurship, education, travel, and creating a home in a different place. Workbook pages and guided exercises give the material a hands-on dimension, helping organize decisions around work, lifestyle, health, and downsizing. A resource list of publications, home-exchange organizations, and websites extends the book beyond reflection into practical next steps. Originally framed around longer, healthier lives and changing expectations of retirement, this revised edition presents retirement as an individual transition with many possible forms.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adults reconsidering retirement or work after age sixty-five
  • People exploring a second career, business venture, or return to school
  • Readers seeking structured exercises and practical resources for later-life planning

Book overview

"This little gem of a book offers sage advice on everything from downsizing to diet and exercise."--The New York Times

With Americans living longer, healthier lives, the conventional idea of retirement is obsolete. Millions of Americans are working past the age of sixty-five--not because they have to, but because they want to. Many, like Marika and Howard Stone, discover second careers, start their own businesses, or go back to school.

Too Young to Retire offers inventive and exciting retirement alternatives to help readers find their labors of love, inner activists, or how to make a home away from home. Enlightening exercises and workbook pages as well as a comprehensive list of publications, home exchange organizations, and websites are included to assist readers in making meaningful choices. For those who aren't ready to throw in the towel, Too Young to Retire is the essential resource for discovering what comes next.
