Editorial Reviews
Retirement does not have to mean the end of life—in fact it can mean a whole new beginning to the life you never had time to explore. In HOW TO RETIRE HAPPY, WILD, AND FREE, best-selling author Ernie J. Zelinksi shows that the key to enjoying an active and satisfying retirement is dependent on much more than just having adequate financial resources. It means paying attention to all aspects of life, including leisure activities, creative pursuits, physical and mental well-being, and solid social support. With its friendly format, lively cartoons, and captivating quotations, Zelinski’s guide offers inspirational advice on how to follow your dreams instead of someone else’s, how to put your retirement in proper perspective, and how to enjoy life after work.

"How to Retire Happy, Wild, and Free..." is a new spin on retirement planning

This book added new insights and perspective on retirement planning and what retirement means. A good read that's both fun, informative, and even inspiring. Anyone contemplating retirement should read this book (and the author's other book "The Joy of not working").

I've read many, many books on retirement, being an author of one myself The New Retirement: Revised and Updated: The Ultimate Guide to the Rest of Your Life.

Mr. Zelinski's book is optimistic and fun, and promotes a positive aspect of retirement that I like - an opportunity to take control of your time. A good read that focues on some of the all-so-important (but often ignored) non-financial aspects of retirement.

Maybe a Blinding Glimpse into the Obvious, But....

Zelinski offers a number of BGO's but I've known too many folks who have moved on into retirement without giving much heed to the straightfoward advice he offers. We all may know how much money we have (or don't have)when we retire, but we may not "what" we're retiring to or think about "who" we will be when we do so. I think he may have over-simplified some of the pre-retirement mental exercises, but he does hit home that we have to have faith in ourselves and respect for (rather than fear of) the unknowns.

A Fun Read

Earnie Zelinski writes "Happy, Wild and Free" in the same easy, light style as "The Joy of Not Working." He has created an excellent resource for those of us looking for the meaning of "life after work." I particularly liked Chapter 6, "Your Wealth is Where Your Frieds Are." Life after retirement is so much more than just having enough money, and Zelenski makes that case very well. Some very good advice is contained in these pages.
