Online retirement home dorset resources and information
It would be great if we could all retire with a nice portfolio of savings and pension income, without having to worry about paying the bills most retired people pay.
Yet...many retirees are living out their retirement on the breadline without much hope for even going on holiday without being assisted by relatives or even handouts. Don't let yourself be one of them...it's never too late!
Title : Mrs. Ted Bliss Author : Stanley Elkin Rating : 1 Stars out of 5. Summary : Skip this one
This is the first book we read for our book club and only three people made it all the way through. Most people gave up after the first chapter. I read the story and found it to be extremely boring and found the synopsis on the back of the cover to be very deceiving. I expected Dorothy to become an exciting person who would be involved in exciting adventures, instead the story dragged on until the climax - the tornado at which point I had given up all hope of redemption for the book.
Title : A Peaceful Retirement (Penguin Audiobooks) Author : Miss" "Read Rating : 5 Stars out of 5. Summary : A lovely and entertaining read, a book to get lost in.
Miss Read, again manages to captivate the feelings of those who to are approaching retirement; and also of those who aren't. Her characters are all someone you know in your own life. Always feeling that they could be so and so. I always felt as if I was included in the story, like I was a friend. I'm an avid reader of her books but it seems this is the last one? She puts such warmth and feeling into this book it spills out from every page. It is obvious that her friends are as devoted to her as she is to them whatever happens. The frequent requests of marriage from John Jenkins are bittersweet and has nearly succumb once or twice. Her lifelong friend Amy, trying so hard to matchmake over the years, tries not to let John Jenkins slip through Miss Reads' fingers but alas fails again. She gets great support from Henry Mawne, who has also been a suitor in the past but Miss Read also gently refused him. She looks forward to retirement with joy and some trepidation, however handles the situation very well. I hope there will be more stories from her in the not to distant future.

Title : The Joy of Not Working: A Book for the Retired, Unemployed, and Overworked Author : Ernie J. Zelinski Rating : 2 Stars out of 5. Summary : Big on inspiration, little on practical advice.
This book would be much more effective if it gave practical advice like 'Your Money Or Your Life'. There is little advice on how you get from one financial situation to the other and assumes perfect health (no reliance on health insurance)and diverse talents (able to get money only as needed). If you are in less perfect health, definitely give this book to a younger, healthier person.
