6. Who Matters More Than What

Merrill Lynch recently did a study on seniors’ leisure activities and the responses they got might surprise you. That is, of course, if you consider retirement the perfect time to pick up various hobbies and really hone in on them, given all the time you have at your disposal.

Turns out that more than 60% of retirees care about who they’re spending their time with more than the activity they’re partaking in.

So while you might have certain ideas as to what you’ll be doing, like going on various hikes, taking up golfing or gardening, you’ll likely end up weighing your options more depending on your company.
