Not That Kind of Boomer The Last Wave - The Last Wave Born 1960 through 1964 - Rethinking the work week.
If you were born in 1960, 1961, 1962, 1963, or 1964, the forms call you a Baby Boomer. Your money may tell a different story. You came home to a house key. You learned the computer at the same desk, with no class. You kept paying the bills after pensions were already gone. This book is for you.
It has two goals:
- To validate what we actually lived through. Not the Woodstock-and-gold-watch version, but latchkey afternoons, the divorce years, gas lines, and a full retirement age of 67.
- To help us rethink work and life now, in our senior years, so we stop trading the hours we have left for misery and a paycheck.
What's inside:
- 35 short chapters in seven parts: who we are, how work changed, money and the rules, leaving work, life after the job, technology, and what comes next
- Seven composite people our age, and their numbers
- Eight worksheets (A to H), including "the ugly page" and an exit date you can stick to
- Writing pages at the start of each part for your own notes
- A short glossary in plain words
It reads like a conversation at the kitchen table, with honest numbers and a sense of humor. No generation war, and no scolding about a thin 401(k).
Not financial, legal, tax, or medical advice.
