title: The transition from career to retirement: focus on well-being and financial considerations.
abstract: A woman's occupation affects her retirement socially, emotionally, and financially. Whereas most women feel "generally positive" toward retirement, women doctors and other high-profile professionals have a tougher time adjusting to retirement than nonprofessional women do. According to Christine Price, on women and retirement, professional women report a sense of loss, while nonprofessional women, such as clerical and hourly employees, feel relieved when they retire.
