Roar is an inspiring book for those who feel that retiring means the end of life, or that life is only going to go downhill from there. This book says it's not. So what happens next? Michael Clinton has found out stories of people from so many roads of life and compiled it here, all in one book. Imagine my surprise when I learnt that it was possible for a man in his eighties to be skiing away! But it is very obvious that everything stated in this book isn't possible for everyone, especially once they have reached a certain age, no matter how optimistic this book wrote it out to be. And the thing is, it's easy to summarise what this book says: don't just retire, but look beyond and think far and wide about where your life could go next for its next big adventure. That's it. But this book included one story after another of people's lives. And it's all... very messy, since every point seems to overlap. A lot. It wasn't easy for me to keep my attention up, so I decided to drop it.
