What is retirement like for women?

Hi,

I’m trying something new with this week’s article – and I’d love to know what you think.

I had been wondering how to tackle the issue of women and retirement, when a reader emailed me. Her group of friends had decided to meet up to discuss retirement, and she wondered whether I would like to join them.

The evening was so fascinating that I decided I should reproduce it as naturally as possible. This week’s article, then, is a transcript of Moira’s conversation with her friends. I hope you find it as interesting as I did. You can read it here.

Next week, I’m going to be looking at how to retire successfully. If you have any suggestions, please do email me at new.retirement@theguardian.com

All the best,

Amelia
