Today’s guest, Leon Sirulnick, has been retired for 17 years now. His life has been filled with extraordinary adventures—and I can say he’s truly done it on his terms.
Today’s guest is very special to me. Back in 2002, I met Leon for the first time in my office. He walked into our meeting, threw a stack of papers onto my desk, and firmly announced he was ready to retire.
That one meeting was a turning point in my financial life planning career. In this episode, you’ll meet the man who I consider to be the father of the Chapter X project.
In this episode, we covered:
- When Leon knew it was time to retirement from his career in television
- The unexpected reason why his first few weeks of retirement were the toughest
- How he responds to people when they ask what he does during the days
- How Leon (and his wife Rhonda) stay socially connected with others
- Leon’s secret to being able to enjoy an active life in retirement
- Why one important meeting with him changed Michael’s entire life
