Synopsis: Discover the three secrets to happiness--and much more--in the later years of life.
Never before in human history have so many people lived for decades beyond their working years. 10,000 Americans turn 65 each day, and their average life expectancy is another 20 years--and many will live longer. But will they just live or have a meaningful life? The truth is that many--if not most--people approaching the latter years do not have a plan, much less a strategy to thrive instead of just survive. Packed with information based on research as well as common-sense wisdom, here are some examples of what readers will discover:
• How retiring at the wrong time increases the likelihood of dying 89%.
• What can delay Alzheimer's onset an average of 9 years.
• How everything that makes you happy comes in just 3 forms.
• Which partner is most likely to initiate divorce after decades of marriage and why.<
