Retirement may either be a time of enjoyment and relaxation or a time of financial hardship. The biggest worry of most retirees is health care costs. Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security are strained, making it difficult to get covered for the things you need. It's wise to plan ahead, talking with financial counselors, saving money, and setting up a retirement plan. Retirement also brings a change in your life that may affect your emotions and relationships. Retiring to a hobby or activities you and your family enjoy will help make the transition easier.
