I’m a 50 year old woman retired from a career in finance. I have an MBA, a CFP and I had several securities licenses which are now expired. I like cooking, gardening, travelling, hiking, kayaking, reading and making soap!
We didn’t do everything right, and I can’t claim all the credit for our financial successes. My husband is 8 years older than me and already had significant savings when he married me. I will try to be as open as I can about the mistakes we made.
As finance is my career, I won’t be talking about that as much as the lifestyle issues. I did it every day for 25 years and I’m a little tired of it. Maybe I’ll add more of that if I keep the blog up well into retirement.
I’m not going to monetize this blog. Writing helps me organize my thoughts, and is also a sort of therapy for me.
Two blogs I read years ago were very helpful for me when I was thinking about retiring. I hope this blog helps someone too.
I’ve never used Word-press before- be patient with my ugly site!
