I watched a retired GP (must have been all of 45 years old) on "A Place in the Sun" buying his £350K retirement villa in sunny Spain last night. Gold plated final salary pension. Which was nice. -
"Retirement" often has a different meaning to many people.Originally posted by DimPrawn View Post
I have friends in very good, well paid senior level jobs but they are not so financially literate and aim towards the brainwashed ideal of working until they are 65 and then retiring on a decent pension.
Those who are financially educated often work on a side project alongside their daily jobs, perhaps investing in shares or property or building up a business that will eventually run independently. They can then 'retire' early and live quite well from residual income. Or they can 'retire' early from the job that is building someone else's dreams and concentrate on their own dream work/business/lifestyle.
And then there are those who have a little (but enough) knowledge of money but don't have the ambition, dependents, responsibilities, need or avarice to want for anything more than a simple life. Perhaps the GP thought that this is all he wanted, and he's happy for it.Comment
