This Was a Revelation for Me

Understand the difference between income and wealth in retirement.

Retirees focus on their nest egg. They should. But more important than their nest egg is their income. The income-producing value of money changes all the time. In 2000, a $500,000 CD portfolio would have paid you $2,000 in monthly income. Fifteen years later, it took $8,000,000 in CDs to produce the same $2,000!

Focus on Income


“In retirement, it's your income, not your wealth, that creates your standard-of-living.”

I wrote Lucky Retiree to give people the information they need to make their savings work as hard as possible, while lasting as long as possible. If you're concerned about your income, I recommend that you purchase Lucky Retiree. Get it here.

Stun Your Readers


“Be original, show off your style, and tell your story.”

Blogging gives your site a voice, so let your business’ personality shine through. Are you a creative agency? Go wild with original blog posts about recent projects, cool inspirational ideas, or what your company culture is like. Add images, and videos to really spice it up, and pepper it with slang to keep readers interested. Are you a programmer? Stay on the more technical side by offering weekly tips, tricks, and hacks that show off your knowledge of the industry. No matter what type of business you have, one thing is for sure - blogging gives your business the opportunity to be heard in a way in a different and unconventional way.
