Friday Night Notes
Sifting and sorting through the vast amount of information that funnels through my twitter feeds daily is a challenge. Much of it is chatter but some is noteworthy. This is what I have bookmarked this week:
Working Retirement; Retirement Work - there are a number of labels for it but it all means the same- some form of employment or business after retirement. The old model of picking a date, finishing work for the rest of your life and heading for the golf course is changing. Many people
find new ways to continue to contribute in the workforce and for a variety of reasons not just financial.
