Never Retire - You Don't Need a Retirement Plan

Free post #2

Before Thanksgiving I will publish this newsletter's first paid article. It forms the basis for everything that follows, as part of what we'll do is build a framework to guide how those of us who will Never Retire can manage our money to live well now and for the duration.

With that in mind, you can convert to a paid subscription for $5 a month or $50 annually.

Ahead of that post, the first article I published on Medium—from July 2020—is required reading. Sorry if I sound like a college professor, but I did think I was going to be one for a few years.

Here is the link:

You Don't Need a Retirement Plan

At the time, I was still feeling my way around Medium with a handful of followers and less than $10.00 in earnings. It’s pretty cool to see claps from people who still read my stuff of Medium today. A couple even subscribe to this newsletter, in its infancy.

Though things have changed and evolved, that article remains the foundation for pretty much everything I have written on Medium since (roughly 500 articles) and the subsequent personal finance strategies centered around cash and the reality that some of us will not be able and/or do not want to traditionally retire.

The paid version of this newsletter, in part, traces the change and evolution of my outlook on money and how it helps facilitate life. That's how strategies, particularly with money, come together. By adapting to new information, circumstances, and shifting personal preferences and necessities.
