Savvy Senior Singles: Navigating the Singles' World from 50 and Beyond

Who likes being called a "Senior Citizen"? Not many. Even though the reality of age may demand the description, there is a more accurate way to speak of many older people who find themselves alone.... This description may be from another edition of this product.

Perky pick-me-up

One is a whole number. And that is the theme of Savvy Senior Singles. Author Samantha Landy, founder of Christian Celebrity Luncheons, is a savvy senior single who shares her insights in this Destiny Image publication. Whether you are single by calling, by divorce, or by the death of a spouse, there are advantages to being single and Landy lists them. We don't have to ask if it's okay to go shopping with (or without) friends, we don't have to ask for approval to buy something, we can choose a romance movie if we don't feel like an action flick. We're basically free to do whatever we want whenever we want. Savvy Senior Singles reminds readers to laugh often, develop a positive attitude, and build a support network. "The Fear Factor" was my favorite chapter. "When we take failure personally, it can devastate us, but when we view it as an event, we can turn it from a negative to a positive change factor" (page 85). Landry is bold enough to talk about sex and the single senior as well as prenuptial agreements, identity theft, and pursing dreams. Each chapter ends with Points to Ponder, a collection of pithy tidbits mined from the previous pages. She ends the book with an invitation. Send her your savvy single senior story for consideration in the sequel. A light read, Savvy Senior Singles is a perky pick-me-up for anyone wanting to celebrate their age and embrace their potential. It is a pleasant gift idea for those old enough to take advantage of the senior citizen discount. - PeggySue Wells, Christian Book Previews.com

Great Read

Savvy Senior Single really hits exactly what it's target audience needs to hear. It's an easy read and very informative - with great suggestions that can make a senior feel more comfortable and happy about their place in this world! I can't wait to get my copy of the network book too. Great job Samantha!

Savvy Resource

This book has some great insight for several people in my family. I like the way it is written and have given it to several people. I love the humor! The section on financial security and protection from identity theft is very helpful.

A Must Read for Anyone 50 and over

As I Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Substance Abuse Treatment Practitioner, I have heard the cries of many who have not followed the advice in the Savvy Senior Singles book. Some haven't pursued their dreams; some have lived in fear, others added another person to their lives without wisdom, or never thought they would get a sexually transmitted disease. Samantha Landy devotes chapters to each of these situations. At the end of each chapter is a "Points to Ponder" page which highlights the main points. Many survivors have sat with me and sobbed because they have no idea where anything is or whom to contact. Readers who complete the Living Network in this book will provide tremendous help to surviving family members and eliminate this problem. Married or single, if you're age 50 or older, you will profit from reading Savvy Senior Singles. Yvonne Ortega, LPC, LSATP
