Retirement Happiness: Maintaining Broad Social Networks

On this episode, we continue our series on retirement happiness introducing the idea of your social biosphere. The broadest layer is your community. Work gave you community and too many times retirees fail to understand just how important that sense of community is to their life post-retirement. In this podcast, Ben will discuss the dangers of not maintaining your broad social networks so you feel like you retire, then lose your entire family the next day.
