    About this ebook

    Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

    Book Preview: #1 We’re taught from a young age that there’s a right way to do things: get good grades, go to college, choose a career path, start a business, collect a steady paycheck, and upsize our spending as our pay increases. But life doesn’t have to go that way.

    #2 Retirement is a loaded term that is filled with imagery of sipping an umbrella drink on a beach. But in reality, retirement has only existed since the late 1800s, and very few people have ever actually retired.

    #3 There is no correct time to retire. The idea that age 65 is the right retirement age is an arbitrary number chosen by economists and actuaries when Social Security was created, and it happens to make things balance out financially.

    #4 You can call yourself retired in some form if you feel like it. And after you detach yourself from the age 65 and its limiting notions of what retirement means, you open yourself up to a different way of seeing life.
