I’m thrilled to welcome Richard Eisenberg back to Chapter X.
In January 2022, Richard left his full-time role as Managing Editor behind to shift into a new life stage that he has coined “unretirement.” Today he joins me to reflect on his experiences over the last three months and share the steps he is taking to ensure a retirement that is both happy and rewarding.
In this episode, we dig into adjusting to retirement in a new world, the financial planning industry, and the recent stories he has penned for the unretired.
Listen in to hear more on:
- How Richard defines his “unretirement” after leaving full-time work behind
- What he’s learned in the first three months of a new stage of life
- Richard’s advice on how to avoid being bored in retirement
- Why we should give up on the idea that one has to master something
- The consequences of comparing yourself to friends and family
