Reimagine Retirement Quiz

Retirement isn’t an end - it’s a new beginning.

Are you ready for what's next?

The quiz below will help you determine your readiness for retirement, beyond the paycheck! These questions are designed not only to assess your readiness but also to raise awareness that retirement involves much more than financial planning. I invite you to imagine how you might reinvent yourself, find new purpose, establish meaningful routines, and nurture social connections - all key ingredients for a fulfilling retirement. That's what you want after all, am I right?!

This 20-item questionnaire uses a 1-5 scale. For each statement, rate your agreement (or preparedness) using the following scale: 1: Not at all; 2: Slightly; 3: Moderately; 4: Very; 5: Extremely

At the end, add up your scores to get an overall readiness score. A higher total indicates a greater readiness for the non-financial aspects of retirement.

Let's go!
