The Reality of Retirement Beyond the Numbers | The Retirement Manifesto - E62

The Reality of Retirement Beyond the Numbers | The Retirement Manifesto - E62

Author: Jesse Cramer August 30, 2023 Duration: 53:49

Today on the podcast, we have a fascinating guest. He's a gentleman by the name of Fritz Gilbert. He runs a blog called The Retirement Manifesto. As you might guess from the name of Fritz's blog, it's all about retirement. Now, yes, Fritz covers the nuts and bolts, the numbers of retirement, but we talk even more regarding the softer side of retirement, the things that retirees ought to be thinking about when it comes to just day-to-day life that they probably aren't thinking about. If you're younger like me, this might not quite apply to you yet, but I bet it applies to your parents, your aunts and uncles, and your older mentors at work. So, it's important we get people to think about these topics sooner. Enjoy!
