George Rider has taken a unique approach to growing old – don’t do it!
After retiring, Rider embarked on a bumpy journey to find himself and a new lease on life.
For the first time, he got in touch with his creative side, an unusual direction indeed, since he spent 70 years of his life as a college athlete turned Navy officer turned Wall Street trader and weekend jock.
Told through a series of uproariously humorous and sometimes poignant adventures, The Rogue ‘ s Road to Retirement is about getting back in touch with your inner rascal and getting off your duff (Rider ends up in an MTV video, a Pepsi ad doing the polka, and Sports Illustrated …)
- being kind to your kids (after all, you need them to do the lawn work now)
- discovering the joys of guilt-tripping your grandchildren into hanging out with you
- struggling with the age-old dilemma – take another nap or go to the gym
- driving your spouse nuts now that you’re both home 24/7
- barhopping (or barhobbling) after age 65
- savoring the sweet memories of friends and loved ones now gone … and much more.
