Retire With Something

The world of retirement planning is filled with helpful advice where often the guidance for everyday life in retirement is the suggestion that people should “Retire To Something.”

This guidance is a good starting point as it suggests that people should have some sort of plan to replace the things that work has provided for them. However, retirement can be a difficult transition for many as it involves numerous important aspects of life, not just the finances, that can take years to adjust to. And what is ‘retirement’ these days anyway? It’s less about a single planned date where you stop working for good, but more about being busy with interests and possibly some part-time work or projects.

Rather than “Retire to Something” we need to “Retire With Something.”
