OCTOBER 2025

In this issue of Retirement Illustrated, we show an organized way to explore the best place for you to live in retirement, considering your goals and circumstances. It can help you decide a potentially tough decision--whether moving can improve your life and finances in retirement.


Retirement Illustrated focuses on the most important decisions and strategies that people transitioning into their retirement years and living the rest of their lives need to consider and potentially implement. Our visual treatment of these topics keeps things simple to help you understand and remember these key issues. You can learn more about these topics by reading the links at the bottom of the newsletter.


PS I'm still publishing my quarterly newsletter that offers retirement insights and information in conventionally written text.

ABOUT STEVE

I'm an actuary who spent 30+ years helping Fortune 500 employers design and manage their retirement plans. Now I help pre-retirees and retirees plan for retirement with my books, online columns, and retirement planning workshops.


I use extensive research I've conducted at the Stanford Center on Longevity on retirement income strategies and how people make key financial decisions. My wife and I are in our early 70s, so we're living the strategies that we share through our company, Rest-of-Life Communications.


I sincerely hope you can use Retirement Illustrated to help you be financially secure, healthy, and fulfilled during your retirement years.
