We all know it’s smart to save and invest for retirement, right? But what happens if you reach 65, having sacrificed your health and relationships to hit an arbitrary number in your account? Here's the thing. The traditional idea of retirement might not work for you. In fact, the system might be broken and was never designed to truly reward you for your contribution in the first place. That's why we're challenging the norm in today's powerful episode with my guest, Derek Coburn. His book Let's Retire Retirement, co-authored with Sara Stibitz, offers a game-changing mindset shift for building a secure financial future without compromising your present. Derek has the numbers to back him up and makes an incredible case for designing a career knowing you'll probably work beyond the age of 65. Listen in because understanding this might free up your income and enable you to enjoy life right now!
