Synopsis

A few months after retirement, the humor sets in: You have twice the time but only half the money. What does that mean? Emmy-winning humor writer Gene Perret has the answers . . .

Retirement: that's when you return from work one day and say, "Hi, Honey, I'm home - forever."

A retired husband - something else around the house that has to be dusted.

They gave me a gold watch when I retired, so now I always know exactly what time I don't have to be at work (his view).

AND FINALLY . . .

Retirement has no deadlines. You've got nothing to do. If you get nothing done today, you can do it tomorrow.

Retirement is the latest book from WitWorks, a funny little division of Arizona Highways Books. You'll laugh and laugh at Gene's wit. Don't just take our word for it.
