What awful expectations and beliefs underlie the messages, spoken and unspoken, as we expect millions of us to lose-lose our health; lose our earning capacity; lose our productivity; lose our minds; and lose our ability to be independent, contributing, and a vital part of our world. One of the reasons I wrote this book is I think there are much healthier, happier, and wealthier expectations/beliefs we can create-for the good of all of us!

Produktbeschreibung
What awful expectations and beliefs underlie the messages, spoken and unspoken, as we expect millions of us to lose-lose our health; lose our earning capacity; lose our productivity; lose our minds; and lose our ability to be independent, contributing, and a vital part of our world. One of the reasons I wrote this book is I think there are much healthier, happier, and wealthier expectations/beliefs we can create-for the good of all of us! I believe that most of my age cohort want to be contributors to the prosperity of the world. I know that I do, and that's another good reason for writing this book. If you are one of the really savvy, or lucky, ones who have adequate retirement money and you are fullled by whatever activities you choose, go for it! If, however, you do not have adequate retirement funds, why not choose to be productive and a participant in the world's economy-and in your own? According to the Economic Policy Institute, a 2013 study found that families between the ages of fifty-six and sixty-five had an average of $17,000 in retirement savings. Even with a good social-security payment. It's quite clear most of us won't be soaring very far or high on that!

Autorenporträt
As a 30 year-old maried woman with an adorable toddler who was napping, Rita Losee read Helen Keller's words,"Life is either a daring adventure or nothing." A bolt of energy strong enough to light up Manhattan shot through her body. On the spot, she decided to live a life of adventure. In the intervening decades, Losee has been stood on the summit of 19,350 ft. Mt. Kilimanjaro, been a proficient rock climber, completed the Hawaii Ironman Triathlon (12 hours, 45 minutes, 27 seconds) solo-through-hiked the 2175 mile Appalachian Trail. Her professional background includes nursing (her first career), nursing management, professional speaking, and customer service consultant. The toddler was joined by a brother. Both sons are adults with families of their own. One of the reasons Losee wrote this book was so her GRANDkids and those of millions of other grandparents create a legacy of soaring for seniors. Currently, Losee resides in Brunswick, ME during the winter months. During the summers, she lives in a fifth wheel on the water in West Bath where she gardens, swims, walks, runs, and exults in being outdoors. One of her favorite summer activites is working part-time at Monkey C Monkey Do, a rope climbing course where she goes to "play for pay.'
