Where Is the Market for Retirement Books?


Question:

So where is the market for a
retirement book such as How to Retire Happy, Wild, and Free by Ernie J. Zelinski or a quasi retirement book such as Career Success Without a Real Job?

Answer:


  • There are now 76 million baby boomers in the U.S. nearing retirement.

  • In the next six years, nearly 2 million teachers are expected to retire in the U.S.

  • In the next five years, over a third of federal government employees in Canada are expected to retire. In New Brunswick, half of the provincial government managers are expected to retire in the next seven years.

  • Within the next three years, nearly half of government executives in the U.S. are slated to retire. (From an article on MSN.com called Six Hot Fields to Consider by Barbara Reinhold)

  • There are 35 million Americans over 65, and that number will grow to 62 million by 2025.

  • However, let's not forget the people from 45 to 65. Many of these people are either contemplating retirement, have sem-retired, or have fully retired at an earlier age.

    Here are Two New Retirement Quotes for Retirees:

  • Life begins when the kids move out and the cat gets run over.
    — Author Unknown

    An inordinate passion for pleasure is the secret of remaining young.

Book Review: How to Retire Happy, Wild and Free


This review of The World's Best Retirement Book comes from the The Canadian Dream:


    As part of my vacation I'm getting caught up on some reading and I came across a great little book.

    How to Retire Happy, Wild, and Free by Ernie J. Zelinski is a must read, but not for the usual reasons.

    Typically I read books for investment advice, spending reductions and taxation. This one is different in the regards it focuses on that old question of "What are you going to do with all that time in retirement?" Ernie actually gives a great read on how to plan your leisure time to ensure you have a rewarding retirement.

    It a pleasure to read a book that addresses the idea of how to have satisfying leisure time. I think most people spend far too much leisure time at passive activities such as watching TV. One example in the book is if you reduce your TV time by just one hour a day you will gain about 365 hours a year or about 20 extra days a year (based on a 18 hour day awake time) to do something more meaningful, such as reading or another hobby.

    So next time you think you don't have time for anything. Try to just find one hour a day and see what happens. (Yes, I know that an hour can seem like an impossible goal some days, but try for just 15 minutes and you still gain an extra 5 days a year on something.)
Here is a little more about the book: With a focus on the non-financial aspects of retirement, How to Retire Happy, Wild and Free explores the myriad choices and decisions we are all confronted with in living out our retirement lives.
Easy to read and well laid out, the bestselling non-financial retirement book on Amazon.com emphasizes preparing for retirement long before you retire.
How to Retire Happy, Wild, and Free is a provocative, entertaining, down-to-earth, and tremendously inspiring book that will help you get more joy and satisfaction out of all your retirement activities.
