《Your Next Fifty Years》為現代中壯年重新定義「退休」的概念。作者 Collins 與 Wall 以心理學與理財專業為基礎，主張退休不該被視為結束，而是一場「再出發」──一段重新聚焦與實踐理想的時光。本書提供具體的思考方向與工具，如假期式退休、彈性工時與階段性退休等新選項，並附有表格、檢核表與「Smart Tips」協助規劃投資、保險與遺產安排。書中也關注女性與中年族群在職場變動、伴侶離世或健康挑戰下的財務應對，兼具實用與啟發性。For millions of Americans in their thirties and forties retirement will have an entirely different meaning than it had for their parents. Most have saved a little, spent a lot, seen pensions cut and Social Security squeezed, and will live longer than any generation before. Your Next Fifty Years challenges baby boomers to develop a completely new perspective: retirement as renaissance - not the end of working life, but rather a time to renew, refocus, and recharge, based on long-range dreams and goals. Collins and Wall draw upon their unique training in psychology and financial planning to explore practical alternatives to the traditional concept of retirementalternatives such as sabbaticals, flextime, and temporary or part-time retirement.

In 1992, while presenting at the World Futures Studies Federation course on International Development, I shifted my lecture from the typical rehearsed presentation on factors explaining maldevelopment to a real time unpacking/deconstruction of transportation futures. As I, we, worked through the analysis, alternatives organically emerged. The four levels were: first, the problem or the litany – congestion and pollution. Second the causes: too many cars and desire for more cars, rising incomes, traditional infrastructure that was not car flow friendly, among other factors. Third, the Big City outlook, westernization, and the "Los Angelization" of the planet. And fourth, West is best with cars as freedom, as individuality. We understood that the government would take a technical approach of creating flyovers and not the deeper required to rethink centre-periphery relations – to decentralize - to reimagine Bangkok as a walkable and green city. This led to a discussion on not just in
