Re-imagine Retirement: Entrepreneur Edition

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.

Robert Frost

If you’ve been following my blog, you know I’m a big fan of redefining retirement. For those of you looking beyond golf and grand-kids, here’s an entertaining and inspiring 7 minute video that offers a different path.

We have an interesting culture that really expects when you reach a certain age, you’re going to be golfing, or playing checkers, or babysitting the grand-kids all of the time. And I adore my grandchildren….
(But) I’m also passionate about doing something meaningful
— Paul Tassner
It's never too late to reinvent yourself. Take it from Paul Tasner -- after working continuously for other people for 40 years, he founded his own start-up at age 66, pairing his idea for a business with his experience and passion. And he's not alone.

Wrapping up:

Becoming an entrepreneur at 66 isn’t for everyone.  

But creating a retirement with meaning and purpose is.

This may not be your path, but I hope it’s inspired you to think about what you want from your own retirement years.
