What if I told you that you’ll never retire?
Stop looking forward to the end of your working days
Financial independence
Early retirement
Winning the lottery
Walking up to your boss with a big smile on your face and saying, “I quit!”
These are the things that dreams are made of.
But, most of us haven’t been putting 50% or more of our income into a great retirement account on a consistent basis for the past 20 years. Most of us weren’t pre-IPO Facebook employees. We didn’t get lucky in the stock market. We haven’t won the lottery. We don’t have a long-lost rich uncle who left us everything in his will.
That leaves most of us with that mythical retirement date in the future. Until then, we’ll just keep grinding away in our 9–5 jobs and putting what we can into our savings and retirement accounts. It won’t be for that much longer, right?
Well, I have some good news/bad news for you:
You’re probably going to live a lot longer than you think, retirement dates are being pushed out more every year, and you’ll most likely end up working beyond when you originally thought…
