The importance of having an occupation after retirement.
Permalink  

The importance of having an occupation after retirement. As we get older we sometimes begin to doubt our ability
to "make a difference" in the world.
It is at these times that our hopes are boosted by the remarkable achievements of other "seniors" who have found
the courage to take on challenges that would make many of us wither.
 
Harold Schlumberg is such a person:  
 
THIS IS QUOTED FROM HAROLD:
"I've often been asked,  'What do you do now that you're retired?' 
Well...I'm fortunate to have a chemical engineering background and one of the things I enjoy most is converting beer,
wine and whisky into urine.
It's rewarding, uplifting, satisfying and fulfilling.  I do it every day and I really enjoy it." 
Harold should be an inspiration to us all.
