Reviews for How to Age in Place: Planning for a Happy, Independent, and Financially Secure Retirement

This should be required reading for anyone over fifty. Much more than just a guide to aging in place, this book provides a comprehensive roadmap for boomers eager to enjoy the best retirement possible. Written in an engaging and upbeat style, this is an incredibly informative, useful, and valuable read. --Nancy Collamer, author of Second-Act Careers and creator of MyLifestyleCareer.com This excellent book doesn't tell you to stubbornly stay wherever you happen to live now. Rather, it helps you see decades into the future, so you can decide where to live, why it's best for you, and how to make it happen. Highly recommended! --John E. Nelson, author of What Color is Your Parachute? for Retirement
