Dream weekend job lets you test luxury retirement lifestyle and get paid for it

If you have ever fancied yourself as a travel writer or critic, your dream job may just well be a few clicks away. An independent retirement living provider is offering the dream job of the year for 2023, which is the chance for you to retire early and get paid to review the experience that will take place over one glorious weekend.

The team at Retirement Villages is looking to hire two retirement testers to stay in one of its luxury communities and live as a retiree for a weekend. These all-expenses paid roles will involve the applicants fully immersing themselves into retired life, reviewing the experience compared to original perceptions of retired living, and sharing their opinion on what their ideal retirement would look like.

Citing one of their recent studies, Retirement Villages say that almost one in ten (9%) of adults aged under 40, have yet to consider their retirement priorities or aspirations. As a result of their findings, Retirement Villages wanted to hire two young adults and offer them the chance to throw themselves into retired life for the weekend for an authentic experience and to really consider their futures.
