Episode 36 Your Retirement Mindset – Part 5 Counting Cash

What are some indicators of wealth you had growing up?

A friend asked me that question recently.

At first, I thought It’s all about money, Millions and billions of dollars.  If you define wealth as living in a mansion, owning a private jet and having a personal banker at your beck and call then my family was definitely not wealthy.  If you describe wealth as having enough food and clothing, comfortable housing, and loving parents then I experienced wealth growing up as well as continued the happy family life with my own kids.  The reality is, that your interpretation of wealth is unique to you.

Think about your ideas about money when you were in your twenties or thirties compared to your fifties and sixties.  The amount of cash, also known as money, is the greatest measure of success, wealth, and a fabulous life in our society.  However, counting your cash, flaunting it or even hording it does not guarantee happiness or fulfillment.

For that, you need to build relationships with family and friends, find hobbies and interests to explore or purpose your purpose.  Spend your retirement years using your cash to enjoy the life it can provide.  Ask yourself, how can I serve rather than how much cash do I have?

Episode 32 Your Retirement Mindset-Part 1 Cultivating Community

Imagine, that you’re taking a break from checking your morning email when you notice the retirement countdown clock, at the corner of your desk.  The clock was a joke from one of your actively retired friends, 2 years earlier.  At this moment the clock reads, 665 Days, 7 Hours, 30 Minutes and 40 Seconds.  You’re suddenly in a state of panic.

Financially, you’re good to go.  All annuities are sufficiently funded, your Social Security strategy is in place, and your checking, savings and emergency fund accounts are just where you want them.  Dave Ramsey, Chris Hogan and Suze Orman would have no issues with you.  However, you’ve neglected to plan your transition from pre-retirement to post-retirement activities.  What are you going to do?  How are you going to feel the first morning after the giddiness of your retirement party has worn off and you wake up with freedom from your alarm clock, a morning commute or even a scheduled team meeting?  You are not alone.

On this podcast, we always provide opportunities to recognize and celebrate birthdays with our listeners by offering a fun story or fun birthday trivia.  Today’s birthday trivia is:  Noisemakers were used to scare away evil spirits and demons on someone’s birthday.
