<b>Last Paragraph in the Preface:</b>

Many of the advantages of being single relate to independence and not being disturbed. Being single is about freedom — freedom to sleep late, watch a soap opera, or go visit that charming member of the opposite sex at the coffee bar. Being single also affords the time and freedom to write a book, go for a ten-mile bicycle ride, or talk to a friend for two hours, without being disturbed by a demanding spouse. More time is available to sit back and determine what you really want. If you know what you are looking for, you will be able to spot it when it presents itself. Making the most out of being single means taking advantage of the freedom to create a lifestyle that is adventurous, exciting, and rewarding for you. This is just important while you pursue your <a href="http://www.unrealjob.com"><b>dream job</b></a> as it is in your <a href="http://www.squidoo.com/retirement-planning-resources"><b>retirement</b></a>.
