Publisher's summary

Stop making a living and start making a life with The New Retirementality™. 

In 2000, when top financial philosopher and best-selling author Mitch Anthony first presented a new way of thinking about retirement, it was novel, and many critics didn't buy into it. Originally written to get the attention of baby boomers, Mitch ended up starting a revolution by showing us that everything we had learned about retirement was wrong—we needed a "new retirementality." 

Fast-forward to today, when most of us are facing a very different retirement: fewer pensions, escalating healthcare costs, and inadequate savings. For many of us, retirement may never happen, or it will take place much later than we expected. Far from being full of doom and gloom, The New Retirementality, Fifth Edition, offers a message of hope, along with a roadmap for navigating the choppy waters of retirement planning. While most books focus on Return on Investment, Mitch shows us that Return on Life™—living the best life possible with the resources we have—is a more fulfilling and achievable approach.  

New to this edition: The latest research and studies, as well as a discussion of Life-Centered Planning™—a unique approach to financial and retirement planning, focused on individual goals and needs instead of the outmoded one-size-fits-all approach. You'll learn about the role of purpose in retirement planning, including the expanding role of work in retirement, and why it can take three or four tries to get retirement right... The book features the New Retirementality Profile, the ROL Index for helping you analyze and reflect on how you are using your money toward improving your life, and worksheets to help you get organized. Filled with engaging anecdotes, practical advice, and inspirational suggestions, this book will motivate you to rethink what retirement means—and put you in a better position to enjoy the new retirementality you deserve.

Refreshing Insights

This has been my perspective for some time. I can’t believe it’s taken me so long to find this book realizing it’s the fifth edition.

Very well organized and good stories demonstrating his practicals.

Highly recommend this book especially if you’re close to retirement and have looked at nothing other than your financial health.

There is no such thing as retirement according to this clown.

I was actually referred to this author by a group of FA's. The overarching theme is no one can retire any longer, so theres no reason to try. Therefore, you just have to keep working. All of the ideas of retirement are all fabricated by the financial industry. "Retirement is an unnatural act." If you did somehow amass enough wealth to be able to not work any longer, you won't be happy anyways. I'm quickly calling all my friends who have not only retired, but retired early, enjoying every single second of it, and letting them know they're not happy and they need to go back to work in the "vocations they love." This guy is nothing short of a schill for whomever is trying to press this narrative to turn people away from preparing for retirement through a time tested method of success. 76 years old and homeless is ugly. I see it everyday and this book is reckless at best.
