Well worth a listen, I liked the school aspect and what retirement can mean for those who are not prepared for a non-working life, work is like a badge of identity, and for some they need that badge or you can feel written off in Society, your just another old age pensioner. Never say you are retired or an old aged pensioner! Keep them guessing.
