"Ellen Freudenheim has written the perfect guide for people who want to make the most out of their post-retirement life. Whether you've always dreamed ot traveling, starting a new career, or becoming a late-in-life athlet, Looking Forward will help you figure it all out."

Richard Carlson, author of Don't Sweat the Small Stuff...and it's all small stuff

Just as the best-selling job-hunt guide What Color Is Your Parachute? helped us figure out what we wanted to do for work, Looking Forward helps us figure out what we want to do with our post-career years, whether that means working part-time, traveling to China, writing a novel, or hiking the Rockies.

Thanks to increased life expectancy, Americans are living longer. Millions of baby boomers on the brink of their 60s can happily anticipate many healthy years to come, yet they're often at a loss about what to do in this new phase of life. And many of them may have an unfulfilled dream or two they've never quite been able to shake. Author Ellen Freudenheim, a boomer herself, shares her generation's uncertainty and excitement. In an engaging, encouraging tone, she tells readers how to successfully pursue everything from second careers to additional academic degrees to volunteer work. Filled with practical tips, informative charts, and revealing quizzes, as well as anecdotes from and profiles of vibrant retirees, Looking Forward is the book that will guide boomers as they reinvent this vital stage of life.
