Tell Money about it.](https://money.com/img/logo-social.png) Are you one, five, or 10 years away from retirement? Money wants to know what you're doing to prepare. For an upcoming story in the magazine, we're looking to speak to people in their 50s or 60s who are making strides to get ready financially for their post-work years. For example, if you're 10 years from retirement, have you mapped out a vision of what your retirement life will be like? Have you set a specific retirement target date? At five years away, are you downsizing your home or deciding where you'll live? With just a year away, are you figuring out your health care options or making a plan for how you'll tap your retirement nest egg? ![](http://content.money.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/retirement-planning-ju-034.jpg) We'd like to hear what you're doing to make sure that your retirement is a success, and we'd like to tell some of your stories in our article. If you're interested in participating, please fill out the ***confidential*** form below. Please be sure to include the daytime phone number where you can most easily be reached; we won't be using any of your information unless we can get in touch with you first. You should be willing to share a brief description of your retirement assets and possibly be photographed for the magazine. Thanks!
