A key focus area of this site is helping you identify suitable income opportunities so that you can adopt ‘phased retirement’ on your terms.
The fact that so many of us don’t feel old is due to the advances in nutrition, medicine and no doubt a payback for the time we spent exercising when we were younger. The prospect of ‘putting our feet up’, and doing nothing for 30 years after retiring say at 60 is not a prospect that many or us either look forward to, or could probably afford. And it’s not just the case of avoiding eking out an existence for a long time. There’s still so many activities you can still in your next 50 years…
So - if you don’t want to remain locked into the rat race of traditional corporate business due to financial necessity or fear of mind-numbing boredom - take a look at the income-earning activities that we feature. Taking on a new challenge could enable you to enjoy your after-50 years - by providing you with new interests and cash in your pocket to do those activities you’ve been putting off for too long.
The Smart Retiree site aims to introduce you to a number of income-earning opportunities you either were unaware of, or were too nervous to try because your lack of knowledge made them appear either risky or unattainable. And as you try new opportunities out, and provide us with feedback on your experiences, we will strive to augment the site with information about each opportunity.
So - if you have the skills, interest, or just plain curiosity about converting some of you skills and available time to a new source of income, work through some of the sections listed in the sidebar. And if you’re curious about an opportunities, and want to find out more about it, start a thread in the Income Opportunites section of our forum. Who knows, if there’s sufficient interest we might even commission a special report to find out the best way get started.
