Book Review: 101 Fun Things to Do in Retirement

An Irreverent, Outrageous, Funny Guide to Life after Work

By Amanda Wiggins

After a lifetime of working, scrimping and saving, you have crossed the finish line into retirement. Free of bosses, timetables and long commutes, you have an exciting world waiting for you. With twenty, thirty, even a possible forty years of freedom before you, how do you choose what to do with the rest of your life? Stella Rheingolds 101 Fun Things to Do in Retirement: An Irreverent, Outrageous, Funny Guide to Life after Work offers ideas ranging from the arts to extreme sports. No money? No problem! Rheingold suggests many alternative budget options.

This is an upbeat, hilarious, unconventional take on retirement. You have the freedom to do anything you want, so get out there and buck convention. Want to get into art? Throw paint at a canvas. Explore street art. Do you have minimal finances? Dont worry. Some charcoal and paper will have you up and running, and you can find free online art classes. Not into the arts? Take up carpentry or mechanics. Start a club or meet-up group. Whatever you choose to do, Rheingold writes, if your kids arent worried about what you are up to, then youre probably not doing it right!

Sometimes we need permission to live a little, and Rheingold gives you carte blanche to follow your dreams. Im in my forties, and I found this book chock-full of motivating ideas. Why wait until retirement? I plan to start now!

Beneath the humor lies excellent suggestions and nuggets of truth, but be forewarned, this book is not for the easily offended. Whether youre a little bit country or a little bit rock and roll, theres something in this book for everyone. Hmm, maybe Ill take up extreme ironing.

101 Fun Things to Do in Retirement is available on Amazon in both paperback and Kindle formats.
