It might include work (paid or otherwise), it might be travel based, experience based, hobby based or maybe a complete change of learning and enjoying something completely different.
Here are some things I've learnt which I hope will give additional 'food for thought'.
Try not to be too prescriptive, time isn't on your side.
- Have a balanced approach and a clear vision of the life you want.
- Have a positive outlook on aging. Mental and Physical
- Have financial vision and stability. Means a budget for daily living. Another budget funding retirement dreams. Yet another budget for funding security and emergencies.
It's entirely up to the individual.
