Welcome to The Retirement Lifestyle Center
Planning the future you want in this next stage of your life!
The Retirement Lifestyle Center Inc. is a research and education company focusing on the key issues associated with retirement today. The company helps North Americans and their advisors and coaches redefine the traditional view of retirement and create a plan that is more in keeping with 21st century retirement.
When you think of the word 'retirement', what vision comes to mind?
Will this be a time of excitement and achieving your life long dreams? Do you expect to work or perhaps volunteer, just to keep yourself active and engaged? What health changes might affect your plans and what do you need to understand about handling life’s changes as you get older?
All of these questions and the answers you provide are as much of retirement planning as whatever financial plan you come up with or how much money you have. Retirement for many is a transition to a new life stage and is more of a psychological shift than simply “life after work”.
In our view, you are ‘retired’ when you wake up one morning and you have decided that you can now do WHAT you want, WHEN you want, and HOW you want. That is the true state of retirement for today’s boomers. And, if you want to keep working—that still means that you can call yourself retired!
We created the Retirement Lifestyle Center in 2000 to help maturing North American boomers plan for this new idea of retirement. We aren’t going to tell you how you should retire, and we aren’t going to assume that YOUR retirement will look like the ones you see on a television commercial.
We also know that there are scores of advisors and personal coaches who actively counsel their clients on retirement issues. We have extensive experience in helping advisors understand those important communications keys that will help them relate more effectively with their maturing clientele.
Through the programs that we run for pre-retirees, retirees and their advisors, the information that we provide and the tools that we have created to help you in your planning, we would like to be a catalyst in helping you achieve the kind of life that you want for your future. Our role at the Retirement Lifestyle Center is to pose the questions
Have you thought about…?
and
Did you know…?
ideally so that you have the basic structure to create your own vision of retirement!
