What it is:
• It is a 6 hour course that meets for one hour per week for 6 weeks in the Cary home office of Mike Thomas.

Who Attends:
• 50+ like-minded people, who do not wish to retire from life, want to choose what is next for them, expect to live longer lives into their 90's and beyond.
• Those who want to find the answers to make their bonus years more vibrant and meaningful.

Content:
• You will tackle attitudes and habits related to your key issues of money, work, volunteering, travel, learning, relationships, leisure & wellness.

Processes:
• Each class (less than seven participants) is a structured facilitated discussion.
• You will examine key issues and design a Life Plan filled with possibilities for the second half of life.
• You will explore the meaning of retirement to you: what will change? what will remain constant? What will matter to me? What will I do? Who will I be?
• With group support, you will be motivated to take desired action immediately, even before completing the course.
