After realizing that there are more than 25 million single women over the age of 45 in the United States, and that even though you might be happily married now, there s an 80 to 90 percent chance that if you re a woman, you ll be single, too, and responsible for all decisions , I decided I had to write this book.
JC: I felt the book needed to address the entire person. It s not just about the money, although of course not outliving your money is important. Social support, working, travel , volunteering, relocating, health , caregiving , boomerang kids, death, divorce, deepening connections — these are all important facets of retirement that needed to be included. I solicited input from many single travel trailers for sale dallas texas women about all these issues: I m a believer in the collective wisdom of women. travel trailers for sale dallas texas The book blends stories, statistics, lots of examples travel trailers for sale dallas texas and details. travel trailers for sale dallas texas I like specificity, and I like a holistic approach.
JC: Recognize that retirement can be exhilarating and scary; stressful and liberating; travel trailers for sale dallas texas a time of positive change and a time of uncertainty. Single women can adapt, embrace, learn and thrive. A social psychologist, Jonathon Brown, shared this analogy with me. It's a philosophy I embrace, and it s plain good advice:
It s like the difference between a dog and a duck. A duck goes in the water and doesn t get wet. That s a gift ducks get early in life. A dog goes in the water and it has to shake itself dry. Maybe you re never going to be a duck, but you can learn to be a better dog. You can learn to handle life better.
