Retirement Is the Beginning of Life, Not the End
“Only seventeen more years of misery at my job,” you may be thinking, “and I get to experience Pension Heaven.” Not if you read Ernie Zelinski's How to Retire Happy, Wild, and Free. It has Retirement Wisdom That You Won't Get from Your Financial Advisor, which will inspire you to retire early just like he did even though his net worth was minus $30,000 at the time.

Unfortunately, retirement often gets a bad rap from many media people
and other individuals who themselves have not been able to successfully
cope with retirement. Fortunately, people who can't cope with retirement
are in the minority. "Retirement works out quite well for people," states Joel Savishinsky, a professor at Ithaca College. Savishinsky,
author of Breaking the Watch, adds, "It is not the kind of trauma
it has often been pictured in the past."
To be sure, most retired Americans who have implemented their retirement plans are enjoying themselves according
to a survey by financial services firm AIG SunAmerica. Similarly,
based on a recent survey conducted by Trimark Investment Management,
most retired Canadians have no regrets about being retired. The Canadian
retirees taking part in the survey claimed that a drop in stress and
an increase in intellectual stimulation since they left the workplace
are two big advantages of being retired.
A drop in stress and an increase in intellectual stimulation aren't
the only advantages that people around the world get to experience
when they retire. "Retirement has been very enjoyable for me," declares
Pat O'Brien, 65, of East Haddam, Connecticut. "When it snows, I don't
have to worry about getting on I-95 to go to work."
Mr. Yong Khin Chong, 56, of Singapore states that more time with his two grandchildren is the biggest perk of retirement. Indeed,
after two years of retirement, he claimed that he still didn't have
sufficient time to do the things that he would like to do. His retired
wife, Madam Ku Lee Nor, also 56, added, ''I don't feel bored at all.
It's only now that we have time to travel, read, do gardening, and
exercise more regularly.''
The ability to make many choices is another benefit of leaving the
work world. "You're free to rediscover who you really are," states
retiree Lynn Nelson Paretta, a volunteer with a community service
center in Springfield, Virginia. "You're free to go back and build
on those aspects you perhaps did not have a chance to express when
you were in the working world."

Can You Retire Rich?
The authors of The Millionaire Next Door, Thomas Stanley and William
Danko, recommend the following formula to determine if you are accumulating
wealth at the rate you should be if you want a financially comfortable
retirement. Take your pretax income and multiply it by your age; then
divide by 10 to get your expected net worth. According to Stanley
and Danko, if your expected net worth is greater than your actual
net worth, you should have a comfortable retirement.
Of course, like most formulas, this one has at least one shortcoming.
If your income is $10 a year and your net worth is $1000, the formula
indicates that you are heading toward a comfortable retirement. Good
luck!

A Government Job Ain't All That Bad
If You Want to Retire Early
"The only essential government worker," says some workplace graffiti
"is the snowplow driver." Perhaps this is why government workers can
retire earlier than others. No one cares if they go.
Indeed, if you
want to retire early, you can increase your chances by having a government
job. This way you won't need a retirement job or a retirement career.
Statistics Canada found that workers in the Canadian public sector retire four years earlier than private-sector employees, and both
leave the work force far sooner than self-employed individuals. Public
sector employees have a median retirement age of 57.6 and for private
sector employees the median is 61.7. Alas, self-employed workers continue
to work until age 65.
It could be, however, that the self-employed enjoy what they are working
at much more than people employed in government or the private sector.
I know that I wouldn't trade what I do for 99 percent of jobs even
if they paid me one or two million a year.
