"Your Retirement Dream: How Planning Can Make It Come True"
with Harriet Edleson, Author and Journalist
Retirement! Have you imagined you’d be lounging on a beach in the south of France or Bethany Beach? Riding a luxury train through the White Towns of Southern Spain? Cruising the Danube on a luxury riverboat? Or, taking courses with others like yourself? Serving on a nonprofit board? Buying a vacation home in the mountains? Spending more time with the ones you love? Relocating to be near your grandchildren?
Whether you are already retired or thinking of retiring in the next five or 10 years, planning will make the journey more enjoyable and secure! What do you really want to do? Whatever your situation, the best way forward is knowledge. Join us to learn about the optimal time for claiming your Social Security retirement benefits and how to decide whether downsizing is for you, since housing can be the largest expense in retirement. Harriet Edleson is the author of the new book, “12 Ways to Retire on Less: Planning an Affordable Future”. She writes for the Washington Post Real Estate section and MarketWatch. A former staff writer for AARP and contributing writer to Kiplinger’s Retirement Report, she has also written the Retiring feature for the New York Times.
