Caution! Old Age Ahead

The old often look back and wonder how their youthful days went by so quickly, and many regret the missed opportunities of their prime years. The younger ones though, in their primes, often live, largely oblivious of the rapid approach of their latter years, neglecting to plan adequately for them. In Caution! Old Age Ahead, Septuagenarian Beatrice Ijiwola, shares passionately and transparently with the young from her own life experiences and from insights gained through extensive interactions with fellow seniors in the two continents she has lived -- Africa and North America. She passes on practical wisdom on how the younger ones, with more years ahead of them than they have lived, can adequately prepare now to secure a comfortable life without lack or regrets in old age. She also shares how her contemporaries - grandparents, retirees and other seniors -- who may feel that they hit their latter years without adequate preparations -- can regain a measure of fulfillment. Readers who heed the practical advice in this book, young and old, will learn to make what usually is the loneliest, weakest and least independent season of life one of great productivity, fulfillment and joy.
