Retirement: Entering the New Phase of LifeThursday, January 24 & February 21 • 12:45pm
Join Joel Grubman and Hank Albert in this monthly series of discussions aimed especially at recent retirees. Let’s explore the topic with a group of peers who are
now free of the daily grind, but may have new concerns. How do we fill our days with stimulating activities? How do we find meaning and continue to give back? How do we stay healthy, physically and mentally, when the hours have less structure? How do we make new friends when we stop running into the old colleagues at the office, or when
the rolodex is tossed away? How do we keep from driving our partner crazy, or vice versa?
And then there’s the money questions!
Stop in at KleinLife Montgomery County for a monthly afternoon discussion on all these
topics and more. Feel free to join us for lunch before the discussion, as well as any other
part of our program. Snacks provided!
