More than 500,000 Australians plan to retire in the next five years and are in their pre-retirement or 'part-time' retirement years, preparing for the massive life change that signals their move from working every day to living as they choose. In the years before they retire, and the early years of retirement, people want to prepare well and set themselves up for the exciting 30+ year journey that could be ahead of them. This is where How to Have an Epic Retirement comes in.

There is no one in Australia who has more insight into what retirees want and what they need to know to achieve it than Rebecca Wilson, founder of the hugely successful online platform Starts at 60. Armed with information and the best anecdotal knowledge from retirees and those planning to retire, Rebecca has compiled the ultimate guidebook for those who want to make the most of this time of their lives.

With examples, common questions, and information you can apply to your own circumstances, Rebecca addresses the six key pillars of a great retirement: time, money, health, happiness and fulfilment, travel, and your home.

How to Have an Epic Retirement guides readers through the way the systems of retirement work, so you can learn the valuable lessons that modern retirees wish someone had shared with them before they kicked off the changes and stages of life that come after retirement.

Every modern retiree can have an Epic Retirement - and this book will show you how.
