'Retirement bad! Living good! Refreshingly salty, unapologetically un-woo-woo, and totally inspirational.'
- Ben Miller, Actor, comedian and bestselling author
'As Shakespeare might have said, "To retire or not to retire that is the question"! Lyndsey Simpson's book is the perfect primer for answering that question- and more importantly what to do about it! At age 91, it even gave me some new ideas!'

'Few things are as important now as how you age and what to do with those extra years that longer lives bring. This book will make you think hard about what you want to do and how to do it. Whatever your age you have more years ahead of you than past generations and need to age differently. Its time to join the age rebellion'

'At 50, I feel more energised, more curious and more driven by purpose than at any other time - and The Age Rebellion explains exactly why. Ikigai has taught me that meaning deepens with age, and this book gives us the roadmap to design a future that matches that truth. It tears up the old rulebook on "retirement" and helps you plan for the extra 30 years modern life now offers. A brilliant guide for anyone ready to rewrite what comes next.'
- Sam Smith, Founder of finnCap/Cavendish Financial and co-founder of SuperScalers, author of The Secret Sauce

This isn't about ageing gracefully or embracing retirement chic. It's about rewriting the rules for work, identity, and purpose across a 100-year life. Smart, timely, and quietly radical.'
- Avivah-Wittenberg-Cox, CEO, 20-first and Host 4-Quarter Lives Podcast
