On the contrary, argues award-winning journalist Chris Farrell, we are instead on the verge of a broad, positive transformation of our economy and society. The old idea of "retirement"-a word that means withdrawal, describing a time when people gave up productive employment and shrank their activities-was a short-lived historical anomaly. Humans have always found meaning and motivation in work and community, Farrell notes, and the boomer generation, poised to live longer in better health than any before, is already discovering unretirement-extending their working lives, often with new careers, entrepreneurial ventures, and volunteer service. Their experience, wisdom-and importantly, their continued earnings-will enrich the American workplace, treasury, and our whole society in the decades to come. Unretirement not only explains this seismic change, now in its early stages, it provides key insights and practical advice for boomers about to navigate this exciting, but unsettled, new frontier"--Publisher's description. 000716857 650_0 $$aBaby boom generation$$xRetirement$$zUnited States. 000716857 650_0 $$aRetirement$$xEconomic aspects$$zUnited States. 000716857 85200 $$bgen$$hHQ1063.2.U6$$iF37$$i2014 000716857 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:716857$$pGLOBAL_SET 000716857 980__ $$aBIB 000716857 980__ $$aBOOK
