This thing by Bill Gates is circulating: The 11 Rules of Life. Very focused on teens. So what would a retired person tell me about the Rules of Life after 55?
Maybe it's some of the same Rules, just time-adjusted for the next chapter in life.
Rule #1 seems to always come in handy "Life is not fair; get used to it".
I'm sure the people who retired in 2007 and took a lump sum in stocks can relate to revisiting this one. Or the colleague that got cancer shortly after retiring. It's not about "fair", rather about making "lemonade from lemons", "playing the hand you're dealt" and "dancing with the one your with". All very trite, AND at the same time can really work to your advantage.
