The retiree book 

The writing the retirees book is the brain-child of the IYB Consult. The team agreed toconcentrate on writing and launching of the book. The main aim of writing this retirees

 book is to reduce the 90% vulnerability of retirees to 10% through training.

It is true that:1.  with better planning we are able to improve our coping strategies

2.  with positive investment we are able to earn3.  with a positive attitude towards retirement we can live better during retirement

4.  with stable emotional wellbeing ± spiritual , emotional and mental5.  with proper adjustment and soflanding backhome we can adjust better to a new

station ± home is where your little heart desires to settle, it is where if you go back they take you in

6.  with better planning we are able to development IGAs and/or business

Statistics indicate that within the first five years of retirement;

1.  1% of the retirees become rich2.  4% become financially independent and stable

3.  5% will be in full time jobs4.  12% will be broke

5.  29% die while6.  49% are dependant on family and friends

In the writing the books the team will carry out an impact assessment first to incorporate
