BE PRODUC TIVE AFTER RETIREMENT
“I retired early at 63 and I don’t want to just sit on the beach til I die.” — Charmaine Gilbreath
Charmaine Gilbreath, 67, was ready to retire from her career but not from life. She decided that for her, retirement would mean reinvention and reeducation. After 30 years as a research scientist, she went back to school to study the field of 3D printing. She believes that not making use of the education, experience and wisdom that comes from a productive life is a missed opportunity, both for the individual and society.
