Retire richly. Book reviews.
Finance, retirement & lifestyle.
Retire richly - you deserve it. Retirement finances are complex. Financial independence typically results from diligent saving, index funds, financial planning, investment portfolio that accumulate wealth and/or build passive income. Those seeking early retirement may embrace Financial Independence Retire Early (‘FIRE’) disciplines. Digital nomad or expat opportunities may appeal to some. Retirement finances often require a different perspective and new topics to learn. This may include retirement planning, pension income, tax planning, retirement age choices, asset decumulation and expense management. Retirement lifestyle reflects a new life phase. This may include lifestyle considerations such as retirement travel, retirement healthcare and retirement communities. Others may choose to retire overseas. Retire Richly seeks to highlight resources that may aid education, planning and action towards a joyfully rich second half of life. Content is structured into three themes - financial independence (investing psychology, investment portfolio and financial planning); retirement finances (retirement portfolio, pension income and retirement planning); and retirement lifestyle (non-financial aspects).
