You may have dreamed of leaving the workforce and retiring early, but have you ever worried about getting ‘retirement regret’?

Burdened with a slower pace and tighter finances, more & more ‘unretirees’ are heading back to work.

According to a survey by financial services company Canada Life, 40% of people have some form of retirement regret, with 1 in 10 saying they wished they had chosen to retire later and that they wouldn’t have left work when they did, if they had known what it was like.

To discuss, Andrea is joined by CEO of Active Retirement Ireland Maureen Kavanagh, Cellie Irwin, Chair of the New Ross Active Retirement Group, Paul Kenny, Ireland’s former Pensions Ombudsman and Course Leader with the Retirement Planning Council of Ireland and Pat O’Mahony, Author of ‘Rethinking Housing Options for Senior Citizens’.
