If you listen the rumors, you’re probably convinced that you will drop dead less than three years after retirement. This simply isn’t true! It does, however, require preparation and a shift in mindset to do it well. This course helps our “seasoned” responders prepare for this major life transition and take steps now to make it even better than expected!
