Just as the finances are important to consider in planning for retirement, so too are the lifestyle issues. Having a plan regarding what you are going to do in retirement/ your next life/ second life is very important.
A lifestyle portfolio is important to ensure you include different areas of your life and it is not too concentrated in one area. For example the lifestyle portfolio may have:
* Occupations which may include part time work, mentoring, consulting work
* Hobbies, some of which may generate additional income
* Volunteering that could include service clubs, church groups, special causes
* As well as leisure pursuits.

We wrote of 101 people, we met around Australia, in Retire Bizzi - who had retired, not like it, or retired and wanted to do something different. People doing amazing things - some were profitable hobbies, some were small businesses.
And. Don’t underestimate the importance of a previous career title …for many people they tend to say, ‘I used to be’…not what they are doing now.
