Last week's spousal compatibility survey brought plenty of good news - and a little heartache. We found that Topretirements members and their spouses are mostly quite compatible, and they spend a fair amount of time planning and discussing their retirement plans. For the most part they look forward to a happy retirement. There are some areas of incompatibiity though, mostly having to do with where to live. The best parts of this article are your actual quotes -  your insights and techniques for how two people can work out successful retirement planning are inspiring.
