Grandpa's Rocking Chair: "Retirement, a Dream . . . Your Journey, the Challenge"

The author, also born in 1929, lived through those challenging Depression years, experiencing firsthand the many adaptations and sacrifices needed to survive those trying times. Now some eighty-eight years later, the author looks back to review those key principles that helped folks survive those challenging 1930s. Although the times we are living in today are radically different than in those Depression years, the author holds to the belief that if these same key principles are followed by America's working class today, they will be more successful in meeting the challenge of our ever-changing, complex society. This book offers some suggested guides that should aid today's workers in achieving increased financial independence by following these same key principles, with grandpa's retirement rocking chair as the goal
