Those Revolting Retirees - Reclaiming Their Self-Worth, Dignity and Happiness

At the age of 65 I'd had enough of the daily humdrum which had invaded my life and I was ready to throw in the towel. My prevailing mind-set, was leading me into a very dark place of depression, boredom, purposelessness and poverty. To say my future looked bleak as I entered my senior years would be an understatement - all the while the Call of the Wild was gnawing away at my soul or spirit. Finally, and in desperation, I answered that rebellious Call.I had tried to simply accept my situation or to simply suck it up, but this had proven futile.I eventually came to realize I needed a revolution, not so much in a global sense, but on a personal level. I needed to turn my current way of thinking upside down. The old formulas and thought patterns we are encouraged to practice, were not working for me.I needed to think outside the box. I also began to question exactly who the makers of these boxes are, and why we are so eager to enter them? Then the revolutionary thought slowly dawned upon me - do we need these boxes at all? That was five years ago.Today my life is exactly how I wish it to be. And so I invite you to come with me and step out of our not-so-comfortable comfort zones and create new lives full of adventure, new friends, travel, work and so much more. In the process we will reclaim our self-worth, dignity and happiness that many of us have had stripped away by ageism, miss-information, cruel Government austerity policies, thuggery, cultural indifference and the ever-increasing us-versus-them mind set found in most Western nations nowadays. They - those who rule, reign, govern, dictate, bully and preside over us now tell us seniors "we are not economically viable " For those of us in, or approaching, our senior years and fed up with this steady drip of elitists' propaganda; this book presents a personal antidote to this dark and degenerate mind-set by turning personal adversity into opportunities. This book is also a distillation of my many years of extensive research, travel, re-training, work and play often in various exotic locations, some of which I found to be more accommodating and suitable for my needs at this particular point in my life.It's actually fun. I'm now a very happy and fulfilled senior as a result and maybe this book might speak to you also and help turn your adversities into opportunities too, if given a chance. Discover how I gradually came to see retirement not as a time or mind-set for slowing down or opting out, but as an opportunity to fashion a completely new and purposeful existence. It's not written in the style of your common everyday seniors' self-help book but rather a revolution complete with true real-life adventures calling out for you to follow; in ways that resonate with you personally, and within your means and capabilities. When I boarded that flight out of Australia, stepping out into the great unknown, I had very limited means indeed. I really didn't know where, exactly, I was going but the alternative of remaining within my current mind-set and circumstances was not an option.I have included dozens of valuable resource links to make it so much easier for you to do your own research as well as including around 70 or more photos to further encourage you to turn adversity into boundless opportunities.If the 'Call Of The Wild' is constantly gnawing away at your soul or spirit, then this book is for you to help launch you into an exciting new world full of purpose, new friends and experiences. It's a true real-life work in progress. If necessary you can even do it all on a shoestring budget by simply following in my well-trodden footsteps. Let's distance ourselves from all prevailing mind-sets which don't serve us anymore.Let's regain control of our own destinies.Be a rebel and let's get out of here.
