(To give you a quick context of what my dream retirement would be: on an island somewhere warm, and to stay healthy, i would walk/swim and exercise at least 3-4 days a week while eating healthier foods after working in healthcare as a PA for 20+ years and making several investments that would allow me to afford such a retirement! Thanks again, I know this assignment is a bit different.)
Using Microsoft PowerPoint (or another form of graphic representation), create a virtual poster that clearly represents how you want to retire. This presentation should include highly specific information regarding the lifestyle you would like to have in retirement. Please find specific examples of the living situation you would like to have (with information from the community regarding cost and admission criteria if applicable), your anticipated financial situation, and where youd like your health to be in order to live the ideal retirement. Be highly specific regarding the steps you would need to begin taking today to ensure that you reach the goal. Include both a narrative and graphics to support your ideas.
Please support your ideas with a minimum of 2 credible sources, one of which may be your textbook.
