As over 10,000 baby boomers are retiring on a daily basis, these two books are particularly relevant. Both founders of their own companies, coauthors of Refire! Don't Retire, Blanchard and Shaevitz encourage readers to make the rest of their lives healthy, joyful, and meaningful, and to use humor, stories, and self-reflection tools as part of that process. In What To Do To Retire Successfully, neuropsychiatrist Goldstein provides solutions to some of the frequent challenges of retirement, such as maintaining a comparable standard of living to before, working in the golden years, and adjusting to a different lifestyle. Goldstein also alerts readers to some of the possible negatives of aging, including vulnerability to crime, ongoing reflections of "what could have been," and loss of identity. Blanchard and Shaevitz's slightly different approach asks readers to take various steps toward becoming physically fit, being of service to the community, venturing into new areas, and so on. Each title gives readers valuable information. What To Do works as a guide book, while Refire! serves as a pep talk. VERDICT These offerings complement each other and present a comprehensive look at retirement.
