Skinning the Cat: A Baby Boomer's Guide to the New Retiree Lifestyles

When Dad retired, he played golf. Times have changed. Today's retirees have a different plan. They see retirement as a time to reinvent themselves; after all, they marched in the streets, explored sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll. They'll choose adventure over safety, trade green eyeshades for whisks, calculators for palettes. And they ll live longer than did Dad. They'll have time to explore life's options. If they continue work most will they'll have money to fund the exploration. What will they choose to do? Skinning the Cat looks at how we ll spend our time in retirement, whether it s continuing full-time work, starting a business, working part time, volunteering or traveling.
