NEW YORK, Sept. 27 /PRNewswire/ --  AXA Equitable Life Insurance Company released today the second in a series of "Retirement Reality Show" videos exploring the attitudes, behaviors and experiences of Americans as they prepare for and live through retirement.

The second episode in the "Retirement Reality Show" series -- "A Garden State of Mind: Expecting the Unexpected?" -- juxtaposes candid interviews with real retirees speaking frankly about how they planned, or didn't plan, for retirement.
