  2. Take the Course

If you enjoyed the book, you'll love the course on which it is based.  Think of it as a book club crossed with a cheering section.  Every week, you will meet with your 2young2retire facilitator (find one in column on the right) and a small group of like-minded people to consider the following ways to love the rest of your life: 

Work that matters (not an oxymoron)
Being your own boss (admit it, you want it)
Community activism (make some noise!)
Money control (bite the bullet) 
Wellness plan (spandex and sneakers)  
Intelligent travel (why to go where)
 

You'll be well prepared to shape a future based on well-considered choices.  You'll make supportive new friends, too! 

                                                                        
Courses are being given at adult or continuing education centers, community colleges, Jewish Community Centers, senior centers, and places of business.   


What Graduates say.  Success story.  Don't let life happen to you while you're busy making other plans.   Your Next Life is waiting. 

       Top Ten Reasons to Take
       the  2Young2Retire Course


1. You are 50 or better and know you have many bonus years ahead. 

2.  You are ready to take responsibility for designing a future at least as interesting as your past, possibly more so.

3. You are willing to invest in a process that will help you create a life based on what is most important to you.

4. You sense you have a great deal to offer: experience and skills you are carrying forward, and untapped gifts and talents you want to access and apply now.

5. You want to learn and grow in a community of like-minded people. 

6. You are seeking a balance, between work and play, service and self-nurturing, head and heart, and to set your priorities accordingly 

7. You are willing to "feel the fear and do it anyway."  

8. You are willing to grow deeper, however you interpret that. 

9.  You are ready to get clear on the money issues that may be holding you back.   

10.  Because, as Mark Twain said:
Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover
