Book synopsis

George S. K. Rider's The Rogue's Road to Retirement takes a unique approach to growing old (don't do it!), with a gentle poke at society for treating retirees as a liability rather than a valuable asset waiting to be tapped. After retiring, Rider embarks on a bumpy journey to find himself and a new lease on life. For the first time he gets in touch with his creative side-an unusual direction indeed, since he had spent seventy years of his life as a Wall Street trader and jock. His story is about living large and giving back. In retirement, Rider becomes an avid volunteer and mentor, playing a pivotal role in the lives of financially disadvantaged children from his hometown of Bay Shore, Long Island, by starting a scholarship program at his prestigious alma mater, Phillips Academy Andover, and shepherding multiple kids through the college application process and later into the working world. Told through a series of mischievously humorous and sometimes poignant adventures, The Rogue's Road to Retirement is about getting back in touch with your inner rascal and getting off your duff. It's about the rebels, raconteurs, and roues who refuse to grow old gracefully, who want to grow old the way they grew up-raising hell, having fun, and giving their kids and grandkids a run for their money.
