Life has an expiration date: when to retire

Here’s an excellent article on retirement preparedness, not just about money. I’ve helped many people cross the line into retirement and I also ask them what they plan to do. One great tip from this article is that you should retire to something instead of from something. People without a plan are often dissatisfied with retirement pretty quickly. Another fun and actual study, mentioned but not cited, is that a monkey with a handful of darts performed about as well at choosing stocks as most highly paid professional money managers. Enjoy and get prepared because “Once you realize that your life has an expiration date (and have recovered from the panic attack), you will probably start thinking about when to retire.”
