6 Ways To Improve Your Retirement & Life After 60!

[@kimhorton6109]

As for living in the past I started getting ready to retire about five years ahead. I got a motorcycle, went camping again, started visiting my kids and hiking. After my wife passed I moved states to get better situated for those activities. Walking in the woods is my main exercise. Now, at 76 I’m still looking forward to every day.

[@RetirementTransformed]

Good stuff! Love that you found those activities that inspire you and moved to a place that provides you more access!

[@williamrice4608]

Not all of us who are alone are lonely. There is something to be said for solitude, peace and quiet to think, plan and enjoy nature and life in general. Especially if you come from a chaotic former life.

[@RetirementTransformed]

I totally get this. I also enjoy times when I can be alone. But I also like having a robust community of friends and family. Im happy you are not feeling lonely.

[@kennethgordon9837]

Excellent advise! I have been a widower now for 10 months and some days can be very challenging for me. At 75 I still walk at least 2 miles every day. I am very motivated to travel and continue to see the national parks and other fine areas of the country just like I did with my wife. And I know she would be happy that I can still get out my camera and find new experiences and meet people even if only small talk occurs. I am ok with that. There is I have found, a very fine line between freedom and loneliness. She is always with me in many ways no matter where I go now. Thank you for this video.

No smoking, little to no alcohol, some exercise, and some interaction with people and an enormous amount of KZbin. Too much interaction with humans can also be detrimental to your health. The main reason i absolutely Love Love Love KZbin is because of my choice to be with who i want to be with and what i want to expose myself to. I love my KZbin Family. Been addicted for about 15 years.

I retired with my hubby early (he was 58 & I was almost 51) we traveled for 12 years in our motorhome around the US - seeing new things, making new friends, new experiences,... Now we just resettled in our "final" home where we're comfortable and now enjoy our next phase of retirement! But we're not juat sitting in the proverbial rocking chair, we travel to new areas, make new friends & visit with old friends that come thru the area, attend local events,... We are content with the retirement life we chose!

[@ThanhBenMansour]

I saw my parents retire with health problems. One of the things people forget is that the third act of life also typically involves chronic diseases. It's not just a question of financial burdens, it's also a quality of life issue. Maintaining a quality of life that you expect to have can be difficult simply because of chronic diseases many seniors face in the third part of their lives.

[@RetirementTransformed]

Yes. According to Dr. Peter Attica, who wrote the book “Outlive”, the number one thing we can all do to increase our healthspan (The number of year we live but also the quality of those years) is exercise. We all really need to make this a priority as we age.

[@WestShoreMan]

I’m 62 and hiking Mt. Whitney again this month. Too much fun and not enough time as far as I’m concerned. Great channel!

[@lindadorman2869]

I'm 63 and semi-retired with my own home-based business that keeps me busy a few hours a day. What I'm finding is how important it is to have something on your calendar almost every day. It can be a household task like doing the laundry or cleaning, meeting with friends or family, shopping, taking a class, exercise, whatever. Waking up with absolutely nothing to look forward to is fun for awhile, but it gets boring. Now I just reserve one day a week for total rest and relaxation.

[@RetirementTransformed]

This is such a great plan that you have put together for yourself. Congratulations!

Great positive video from Michael in Nottingham, England. Im Sixty and retired and fully happy about that. I also think it is very important to never stop learning, and interact with other people.

Hi! I just found you. Great content. Formula that works for us in retirement. Stay busy, at 57 retired to the farmstead. Raised animals, grew a garden. Active in our church community. It’s a wonderful life, a lot of work. Happy work. Now after 11 years giving up all farm animals. Still grow a garden. Got involved with dog training and now going to dog obedience trials. New dog friends. Because we retired early our budget is not as robust as some. There is a book. Probably not still in print. “Get a Life” by Mark Cooper” It’s still available in online used book stores. Happy retirement ya all!

Thank for for this. It sounds like your life is flowing nicely. Keep up the great work. You inspire many with what you are doing to stay active and adapt your life.

[@Lola-jt5dx]

I'm 58 and making my plan to retire at 60. I fantasize about having my whole day to myself instead of the daily grind at the office. My husband retired a couple of years ago and he told me to take the first year to figure out what my interests are before committing to anything. I think he is right in a way as I'm inclined to want to join every group and feel overwhelmed with responsibilities!

[@RetirementTransformed]

Your husband gave good advice. Finding community is important as you leave your career. You will miss your colleagues and need to find new groups to spend time with.

This couple is very down to earth, and real-personish. The tech is totally a necessity and well, joyous. Thank KZbin ! When the weather permits, go outdoors so as to 'isolate' aloneness. Right, can never - necessarily - go by what was; yet, keep remembering those cumulatively learned lessons. Family and loved ones very quickly pass away. The next vid 'Retire Now' makes sense: My father was going to retire at 65; but, he died at 64 and 10 months ! Uncompromising Takeaway - As anybody who wakes up and lives ⏰️ at 60 +, the only boss to be accountable to is G-d.

[@RetirementTransformed]

Thank you. My dad retired at 65 and died at 80. Poor nutrition, lack of exercise, and he was an alcoholic which all led to an early death. He is part of the inspiration to build this channel.

I am 69 and very active doing things at home. My husband sleeps in each morning and stays up at night till 1pm. He is 75. I am a early riser and have most of my day over and his day is just beginning. It's awful he's very set in his ways. We don't do alot together for obvious reasons. What are your suggestions for this.

[@RetirementTransformed]

Thank you for sharing this. I think asking him to have a chat about how you want to spend the rest of your lives together would be a start. But it’s not easy. So go slow, be thoughtful, be a good listener. Set some ground rules for the chat. Everybody must listen and not interrupt the other. Reflect back what you heard. Take notes. Say thanks. Sit on what you both said and heard, then chat again in a week. The goal would to start finding some things you can do together as a way to spend some quality time and also work on your health together. Hope this helps.

[@GTsang]

If you always think about your past, then that means you are getting old. I gradually accept I 'll turn to 60.

#1. Living in the past. Don’t say over and over, “I used to…”. #2. Don’t neglect your physical health. #3. Don’t avoid new technology. #4. Don’t set unrealistic expectations. Eg. Don’t expect to run a marathon, start by walking lots. #5. Stop resisting change. (Eg. Downsizing). #6. Don’t isolate yourself from others. Highest rate of suicides is with men 65+.

Retired 21 years ago at 45. Yeah, big change in thinking is required. And that need to change continues as I get older. Need to face reality. I'm extremely healthy but can see my body changing and I certainly can see the effect of age on others. So I'm facing reality. Planning to move to SE Asia next year to set myself up for when I might need help. A live-in housekeeper is $50-200/mo USD plus food. Fully trained live-in caregiver is $1000/mo. Plus as a single man it's very easy to find a great young female partner. World famous caregivers.

Work a less stressful job?

[@glenmason1876]

All jobs are stressful to a certain extent, retire as early as possible, enjoy life whilst you can

[@Kaufman2024]

60 years old is still young guys! You talk as if they are 120 years old. All common sense and everyone knows things things but if they don't do it, that means they choose not to.

[@glenmason1876]

There are a lot of people dying in their early to mid sixties, so it's not that young, the key is retire at 60, if possible

[@RetirementTransformed]

Thanks for this response. Thanks for listening to our channel as well.

Consume no more than a handle every two weeks

[@RetirementTransformed]

My dad drank a handle every week! That did not work out to well for him. But many people swear by a drink a day, or more. Personal choice an how your body handles it.

[@BobJohnson648]

@@RetirementTransformed yeah, 3 weeks per handle is probably better

Chronic loneliness..

[@RetirementTransformed]

Yes. It's one of the worst things for humans. Community is critical during our entire lives. And that takes effort if you don't have lots of people around.

Technology will eat your time and your money.

[@RetirementTransformed]

Yes it can. But in many cases is makes things in live easier, but there is a financial cost

[@barb987]

70 really bothered me. 😫

[@RetirementTransformed]

I get that. These milestones can creep up on us. But at 66, i'm enjoying every day and sincerely hope i get to at least 90. So the next two milestones of 70 and 80 excite me.

What about getting a dog!

[@RetirementTransformed]

Jody desperately wants another dog. I’m trying to hold us back and just try life a bit without one and see what they is like. We are traveling more now and not having a dog has helped that.

[@philipgerry5228]

We’re 71 and take our dog in the RV. They make great companions. We have a puggle.

Look into plant based eating.

The best way to enjoy retirement is not to retire!!

[@RetirementTransformed]

We are retired in the traditional sense. But starting this new youtube channel gives us just enough "work" to stay engaged and fulfilled.

[@starbomb4091]

so many retirees regret the decision to retire the earliest one should retire is 75 for women and 62 for men.
