Since Your Retirement Quest was published in 2010, Keith Lawrence’s and Alan Spector’s retirement life planning concepts and tools have stood the test of time. The many thousands who have read the book and attended workshops conducted by the authors across the country have validated that life planning enables retirees to live the fulfilling retirement they have worked so hard to deserve.

Your Retirement Quest brings all the essential elements to living a fulfilling retirement together in one place. The book empowers both prospective and current retirees to envision their future, to develop a personal plan that is unique to their life circumstances, to stimulate provocative “crucial conversations” that ensure alignment of their vision and plan with those closest to them, to “practice retirement” for those still working, and to implement their plan and keep it fresh throughout their retirement years.

Your Retirement Quest does this by identifying and describing each of the “10 key elements of a fulfilling retirement,” by relating the real-life stories of retirees who have over 300 cumulative years of retirement experience, by sharing pertinent supporting research, by recognizing the importance of financial security but only in the context of the many other factors that make up a meaningful future, and by providing a practical approach to retirement life planning.
