Rock Your Retirement Show

Do you care about your parents' safety? Of course we all do. Let's take a look at how one family managed to get their dad a stair lift. The family was very nervous and wanted to make sure he wasn't going to fall down the stairs.  They wanted him to be safe at home.  Dad was stubborn and didn't want to admit that he was getting older, and they were nervous knowing that he could fall down the stairs at any moment. How did they do it? What did they say to him to get him to ride the stair-lift to find out that it was safe for him and his beloved dog?  How were they able to make him safe at home?  You'll have to listen to the podcast to find out.

Madilyn talks about Reinventing Life after Grief. You can listen to the show at http://rockyourretirement.libsyn.com/reinventing-your-life-after-the-death-of-your-spouse   I met Madilyn at the San Marcos Senior Center.   She stopped by my table and we started to talk.   This 78-year-old woman was such an inspiration I had to interview her!  She is the epitome of reinventing life after grief. Her husband died after they were married for almost 60 years. Stricken with grief, she didn't know what to do.  He was her dance partner, her business partner, and her friend.  They had lived a wonderful life and had done almost everything on the 101 things on your bucket list. Once he died, Madilyn didn't know what to do.  She had grown up with him; she had cared for him, and now he was gone.   As a woman of faith, she knew he was in a better place, but how was she to go on without him?  How was going to be able to begin reinventing life after grief?  They had been friends and lovers for such a very long time.

Why Rock your Retirement?  A FAQ Retirement is not just about money. Why Rock Your Retirement?  Hi, I'm Kathe Kline and I've been working with retirees and pre-retirees since 1990.  Over the years I've noticed that happiness in retirement had very little to do with how much money you had, (unless you are living in poverty) and had a lot more to do with what you decide to do with your time after you retire.  I had clients who had huge houses who were not having a good retirement, and clients who were living in tiny mobile homes who were having the time of their lives.  What was the difference?  Why were some having a great retirement and others were miserable? In 2015 I gave up my securities license and decided to live a slower paced life.  I wanted to help people, but in a different way than I was doing it before.  Although I still have a small financial planning practice, I generally do not accept new clients. How can I help you?   Many times it is difficult for people to go from working 2000 hours to zero.
