Trees - Samriddhi Banerjee

The oak is called the king of trees,

The aspen quivers in the breeze.

The poplar grows up straight and tall, 

The peach trees spread along the walls,

The sycamore gives pleasant shade.

Myths of Retirement - Shubhangi Kashyap

Retirement myths include the beliefs that: Expenses will decrease, tax concerns will vanish, and every day will feel like a vacation. Work will cease entirely, and Social Security and Medicare will fully cover all financial needs. Retirement means the end of work: It is true that retirement signifies the end of active employment, but productivity remains non-energetic, and there is a gradual decline in health.

It's crucial for individuals to plan for retirement based on their specific circumstances, considering factors like financial goals, health, and personal preferences. Consulting with a financial advisor and staying informed about retirement options can help dispel myths and create a more realistic and satisfying retirement experience.
