Most retirement parties are polite but hollow: cake, speeches, some awkward laughter. We treat them as endings when they could be beginnings — a chance to create lasting value, emotional and commercial alike. So what does psychology tell us about how to do it well?
We spend decades building careers that define us — only to discover, one evening over small talk, that we’ve forgotten who we are without them. When work no longer explains us, what does?

Understand the psychology of money in retirement. From pensions and investing to risk, security and spending, financial behaviour is rarely purely rational. More often it reflects the quiet architecture of the mind, the cultural scripts and the primal instincts shaped long before retirement, revealing that the true economy of later life lies in the mind as much as the market.

Retirement is more than how we live today. It is also what endures. From inheritance and memory to values, reputation and trust, legacy touches what outlasts a single lifetime. It reflects the psychology of continuity and influence, the human need for remembrance and meaning and the subtle desire to leave traces that transcend the self.
