"Hyrum is really on to something in his new book Purposeful Retirement because Baby Boomers are signing up for Social Security at a rate of 10,000 a day. But many continue to work because 65 is the new 50. In fact, multiple retirements are all the rage. I know because I've retired three times and have finally graduated to semi-retired status. Written in a lively and engaging style, there is much wisdom in this book."
--Bob Ulin, Chmn/CEO, Center for Transitional Leadership, Inc.
"Our lives are scripted from birth and we move from one scene to the next with ease. All
you had to do was turn the page in the script and you knew what to do. We started with
preschool, then moved on to kindergarten, elementary school, junior high school, high
school, college, or an academy, an apprenticeship, or the military. We settled into our
chosen field and worked. No matter what your work career was, when it's over, it's over.
So, we simply pick up our script and turn the page for what to do next, but the pages are
blank. We stare in wonder at the empty pages. Through this book, Hyrum helps you fill
in the blank pages. Hyrum's book answers your questions with questions. 'What should
I do?' is answered with, 'What are you good at doing, what do you like doing, and what
do you want to do?'"
