Retirement is a lot like raising kids.
You get one shot, and there are no do-overs.
When your kids are in their twenties, you can’t rewind the clock so you can parent them differently. Similarly, a seventy-year-old can’t re-do their retirement. There is no reset button-some things you can’t undo. The good news is you can embrace your next chapter with purpose, wealth, and confidence by answering the right questions.
Author and financial advisor Dan Langworthy is the founder of Fortress Financial Group. For over three decades, he and his team have empowered clients to enjoy a worry-free retirement, focusing on what matters most-living life to the fullest. He has taken his experience and created this fable based on real-life stories to help more people embrace retirement.
In Retire and Thrive, you’ll discover how to:
You don’t have to wait to live your best life. Retire and thrive-starting today.
