I just read an article in US News.com called 10 Ingredients for Retirement Bliss.

The list is written by a man, Dave Bernard, who writes a lot about money and retirement. In fact, he has a blog on the topic, Retirement - Only the Beginning

I like the title of his blog, because it's so true. For so many of us, we can expect to live 30 years or so beyond the traditional retirement age of 65.

Of course, those of you who follow the stuff I do on NABBW know that I've been doing teleseminars on preparing for and affording retirement for about 8 months now. Most of these calls have been with NABBW's New Retirement Associate, Pam Sams.

And, I'll be doing more on the topic, as my research shows that most Boomers are going to have a tough time retiring in the traditional sense of retirement made popular by our parents.

So take a look at this article, and let's talk about what makes for bliss in life -- whether or not we are yet retired. I think he lists a lot of good points, but I believe he's missing a few. For me, at least. I'd want to have "meaningful work" on the list. Whether or not I got paid for whatever I am doing...

What else is missing? In your opinion?
