Baby boomers who changed the world with hula hoops and Harley-Davidsons are about to start yet another revolution― retirement. Not content to fade quietly into the sunset, boomers have adopted the attitude of retiring to something, rather than from something. They’re redefining retirement by staying in the workforce, revisiting education, climbing the Himalayas, buying farms, living abroad, and running for public office.

With 78 million baby boomers entering this "age of choice," authors David Saylor and Greg Heffington, vice presidents at Van Kampen Investments, have written Get Inspired to Retire. Unlike other books that focus solely on financial matters or on one narrow segment of retirement, Get Inspired to Retire presents a wide array of opportunities and choices. Readers will also find new and innovative planning tools to help them get started, like the "Chart it, plan it, do it" Retirement Lifeline that focuses on the big retirement picture. Part Two is organized around six key topics: financial independence, filling the 9–5 week, housing, self-improvement, adventure, and legacies. In each category, readers will discover a wealth of innovative suggestions they might not have considered―teaching, learning to cook, joining the Peace Corps, writing a memoir, or even rafting down the Mississippi, to name a few.
