In retirement we become more attractive to all sorts of
organisations including insurers so it's well worth
reviewing outgoings. The

of useful organisations and specially negotiated offers.
On the wider Finance front retirement offers the opportunity
to get our affairs in a little more order than perhaps they
have been. The
Retirement
& Financial Planning section

whether it be for financial, social, or altruistic reasons
in the case of voluntary work. We may even want to start our
own business.
