The word "retirement" is often associated with images of white sand beaches, golf courses, and senior discounts. However, the reality of retirement is changing. The traditional retirement model is no longer feasible for many people. No longer is it about sitting back and stopping work altogether. It's about living a life of purpose and meaning, finding new and creative ways to work, or staying active and engaged while simultaneously preparing for the unexpected.
In today's episode, Jack talks with Ken Dychtwald, Founder and CEO of Age Wave. Ken is a psychologist, gerontologist, researcher, speaker, and best-selling author of 19 books on aging-related issues. Over the past 40 years, Ken has become a thought leader regarding the lifestyle, marketing, health care, economic, and workforce implications of the age wave.
