Sharing "Retirement" plan

This morning, I trekked up Bukit Timah Hill. After that, I went to the gym for my normal Friday workout. I caught up with the world at American Club, reading the internet and emails. I sent out the reminder to Jul 10 PSA reunion.

Fetch Priscilla to have lunch at Velocity, a mall at Newton. After which, I went to meet my ex-colleague now friend at a nearby cafe. It was an interesting discussion of sorts. Fundamentally, we discussed various topics regarding "retirement". The topics include: Financial stability and ability, health, use of time for social networking, working etc.

What I found is that we are not prepared to handle this phase called Retirement. What do we have to do? How much money do we need? What are the insurance coverage needed. How to find work? What about resume writing? How to decide if migration is a good option. What is exercise? What exercises are good and essential for the retiree? How do we ensure a balanced networking? Questions, questions, questions.

How is a person to prepare for retirement if he/she does not learn? Who is there to teach retirement? Should I teach retirement?
