Today's retirement is very different than it was for earlier generations. For a growing number of seniors, retirement is a liberating experience filled with options never before available. Traditional retirement — a life of leisure in Florida, Arizona, Texas or another sunbelt state — is rapidly becoming an outdated concept.
Today's seniors are healthier and more active than those who came before us. In today's world, planning for retirement involves much more than just financial planning. Thoughtful planning of what you want to do with the rest of your life — whether it's starting your own business, part-time work, consulting, volunteering, mentoring, enjoying a variety of leisure activities, or a unique combination tailored to your needs — is the key to a happy and successful retirement.
Whatever your situation, Today's Seniors offers retirement planning tools, tips, news and advice about a wide range of topics written especially for seniors, including:
10 Insurance Policies Older American's Don't Need – Don't let your fears sell you insurance you don't need.
401k Retirement Plan – If you are still working, don't forget that you can earn free money for your retirement.
401k Contribution Limits – What are they this year? What are the "catch-up" limits for people age 50 and older?

Disabled Travel – As you've matured, your body may have given you obstacles to overcome, maybe a cane, a wheelchair or the fact that you aren't as nimble as you once were. But that doesn't mean you can't travel with the same sense of wanderlust you've always had.
