When you have both, you're on your way to the top-tier of retirement prosperity. Here's why. Only 1-in-10 retirees achieve top-tier retirement status; a healthy, affluent, robust retirement lifestyle. ORRS (Optimal Retirement Readiness Strategy, Demko, 2013) promotes a proven strategy for optimal retirement prosperity for public and private sector clients, via seminars and personal coaching. Traditional retirement preparation focuses only on financial planning, an essential component, but a job half-done. Retirees also want to be healthy enough, active enough and live long enough to enjoy their retirement nest-egg. Retirement preparation must be comprehensive, based on all aspects of gerontology research. Vetting the accuracy of that research is imperative, “nearly half of all published research is not trustworthy” (National Academy of Sciences 2017, American Association for Advancement of Science 2017). Additionally, data errors are much higher in behavioral science research reports (NIA 2017, Center for Open Science 2017). ORRS (Demko 2014) offers a comprehensive approach to addressing total retirement readiness, based on meta-analysis of geroscience research. ORRS is scientifically sound, produces measurable outcomes, and delivers expert content.
