Do you want to sit out your retirement in a stinky chair in a state-run care home or use the next 20-40 years to pursue your passions, travel and have fun with the people that matter to you?

We are living longer and retirement needs redefining. Unlike our grandparents, who collected their pension for a few years before passing away, we have got decades worth of having fun to plan for.

The mistake most people make is thinking that their pension and the NHS will somehow provide them with everything that they need. The fact is, the government can't cope with the effect of an increasing and ageing population, combined with the fact that many pension pots were wiped out during the last financial crisis.

It's time for you to take back financial control and start planning a strategy to create the Non-Traditional Retirement that you want. It's never too early to start planning. Sadly, most people just don't know how to.

Successful entrepreneur, Vicki Wusche, shares her tried and tested 3-stage system for getting your finances in order, planning an investment strategy that works for you, and gradually reducing the proportion of your monthly expenses covered by your wages. She clearly explains how these expenses need to be reduced until they are totally covered by your investments, allowing you to step out of full-time work and ease into a Non-Traditional Retirement.

Using the principles, tools and valuable resources that she shares in this book, you will be able to plan and build the retirement you want - whether that involves scuba diving in warm blue waters, setting up a business or charity, sharing your skills with younger people or even helping your community. Retirement should be where real life begins.

Named as one of The Telegraph's top 25 most influential people in property, Vicki Wusche went from being a single mum on benefits to retiring wealthy at 48 because she created her Non-Traditional Retirement Plan.
