The Truth About Retirement | Gregg Lunceford
As people live longer and stay healthier for more years, retirement is being redefined. What was once seen as a relatively short closing chapter can now stretch across decades, raising deeper questions about identity, purpose and how to spend our time well. Wealth adviser Gregg Lunceford has spent years studying this transition and the gap between leaving work and living well afterwards. He argues that traditional ideas of retirement, focused mainly on financial security, miss the psychological and social role that work plays in our lives. The challenge now is not simply knowing when to stop working, but how to shape a fulfilling life beyond it.
Gregg Lunceford is a wealth advisor and researcher focused on how people navigate the transition into retirement. A Managing Director at Mesirow, he works with individuals over 50 to plan not just financially, but psychologically and socially for life beyond full-time work. Author of Exit from Work, he examines what he calls the “third age”: a potentially rich, 20-year phase shaped by reinvention, meaning, and a rethinking of what it means to live well.
