Produktbeschreibung

"So, Is Retirement Supposed To Suck?" is a must-read for anyone who plans on retiring someday. It speaks of author George M. Dean's pitfalls, and how others can learn from his mistakes. This book is divided into two sections: In the first part, George recalls some of the more damaging memories from his childhood such as-his father using him as a human connection to the rabbit-ears on top of the TV. Or perhaps the time he was busted in school, by one of the nuns, for perusing through a Playboy magazine-instead of studying. You can only imagine... The second part, explains why retirement is not what it's cracked up to be. According to George, it's the people. No, not normal people like you and me-but those that work for major corporations, and seem to get off on responding in the most negative patterns. You'll hear a lot of "Sorry, that's not our policy", or "Sir, I'm afraid that would be against protocol, so...no!" Anyone nearing retirement is sure to enjoy this humorous and honest account of our authors' experiences.

Autorenporträt

George M. Dean is best described as a misanthropic, disenchanted individual who is at war-mostly with himself. George vents through his writings, which resulted in this book. Think Larry David, but even more disgruntled. Now that he's retired, he has plenty of time, and new things to yammer on about.George prefers to cast blame for his failures onto his parents, citing his abhorrent upbringing. Nowadays, since his parents have sadly left us, he is happily married to a lovely shrew, who has taken over where his parents left off. Call it masochism, but he wouldn't have it any other way.
