Why this website exists
Retirement brings decisions about income, technology, online safety, creative work, and how to stay mentally engaged. The site organizes useful books, tools, articles, and activities around those needs.
About the site
Practical judgment for life after a professional career.
Practical Retiree Lab is created by Mark L. Morrissey, a retired professor of meteorology and author who uses research, simulation, and plain-English explanation to examine decisions without a sales pitch.
How material is developed
Examples are tested, assumptions are stated, technical terms are defined, and limitations are kept visible. Educational material is not presented as personalized financial, legal, medical, or tax advice.
Technical work has its own home
Options simulators, Monte Carlo studies, meteorology books, scientific methods, and technical publications are available on Morrissey Research & Simulation Lab.
