your retirement can be fun, fun, fun!

Meet Peg and Dick Canning. In 1979, 60-year-old Dick had a vague plan to retire in five years. Then he was diagnosed with kidney cancer. This health scare prompted him to re-assess his goals for his post-employment years, and he decided to dedicate himself and his wife to the pursuit of fun. Fun doesn't just fall into your lap, however; you need a well-formed blueprint to maximize the good times, and with his website, Dick helps you draw one. From arranging a "portfolio of activities" to building "a congenial group of people," from deciding where to live to looking after health and finances, Dick has clearly given a lot of thought to making the most of the time spent in retirement. He peppers his text with personal anecdotes, and by the time I'd read everything here, I felt I'd made a new friend--and an unusually wise one, at that.
