What is Young at Heart about?
Young at Heart encourages retirees to live their lives with purpose, fulfillment and fun.
Our mission is to help people sing the song that is in their heart; to live a life that enables them to be true to themselves. But to "sing the song that is in your heart" often costs more money than you can afford!
Having enough retirement savings is a problem for a huge proportion of the baby boomer generation. This doesn’t mean you can’t live a great life!
We can help you design the life you want then realistically work towards creating it.
This may involve boosting your savings by using your lifetime of skills and experience, whether through employment or self-employment... always keeping in mind that your income boosting should also allow you to live a lifestyle that you enjoy.
Your sense of personal identity is fundamentally important to your wellbeing, regardless of whether you are working or fully retired. Therefore those who want a traditional retirement also need to plan their future. It is so easy to let days, weeks, months and years drift by then find that you feel cheated of the life you could be living.
