When you turn 65, one of the most important things you should do is sign up for Medicare. Medicare is a government program that helps seniors and people with certain disabilities get health insurance.
Age 65 is a good time to review your financial plan and make any necessary adjustments. This may include assessing your retirement savings, evaluating your investment portfolio
Seniors need to stay physically active to stay healthy, avoid getting chronic diseases, and keep their freedom. Getting daily exercise that includes physical sports, strength training, and stretching is important for your health.
Preventive care becomes increasingly important as you age. Schedule regular check-ups with your healthcare provider to monitor your health, screen for potential health issues, and receive recommended vaccinations.
Seniors' mental and emotional health depend on having social links and being involved in activities. Family and friends should still be important to you, and you might want to join a social club, a senior center.
People who retire often have more time to do things they enjoy that they might not have had time for while they were working. Try new things that make you happy, push your brain, or let you show off your imagination.
It's important to look at your living situation as you get older and see if it still fits your needs and wants. Think about things like how easy it is to get to, how safe it is, how close it is to medical services and social support.
