Most Boomers Will Not Retire 

The 2Young2Retire Course Offers Other Options

Retirement will cease to be the choice for the majority of baby boomers, according to recent research, and lack of funds is not the driving motivation for this dramatic change.  What will replace retirement?  The 2Young2Retire Course, a six-week teleclass led by Natalie S. Eldridge, Ph.D., will help participants answer that question by discovering what is next for them.  

The first wave of baby boomers turned 60 in 2006.  The largest, most demanding, and most examined generation in history is already facing up to a future that looks nothing like their parents' second half of life. Thanks to medical advances and information about health, baby boomers can expect to live long lives.  Many are looking for direction to make the extra years, beyond the midlife drive to succeed at any cost, more personally meaningful. That's what this course is about.    

The 2young2retire course uses materials from the popular website, 2young2retire.com and book, Too Young to Retire: 101 Ways to Start the Rest of Your Life (Plume 2004) by Howard and Marika Stone.  Each class is limited to a small group of 8-12 participants.  Participants call in for each class to address key issues such as money, wellness, career/work options, small business opportunities, and community service. Independent journal-writing and working with a buddy between sessions provides depth and richness to the experience. This powerful, interactive learning experience will help participants clarify intentions, set goals and take action, while supporting other group members who share similar objectives. 

The time and start date of this class are not yet finalized.  If you are interested in enrolling in the teleclass, please click here and you will be sent the updates via email.
