Welcome back to the Runway to Retirement Podcast Episode 2. This week, Rob explores the five main paths people take into retirement. Some people work until a set age and stop suddenly. Others scale back gradually through semi retirement. Some are forced to retire because of health issues or personal circumstances. A few choose never to retire at all. And then there are those who reach financial freedom or become what we call retirement ready. The big idea here is that retirement is really about having choices, not just stopping work. That is why it is so important to set clear goals around when you want to retire and how much income you will need to support the lifestyle you want. Rob encourages listeners to be proactive, to understand their own numbers, and to aim for financial freedom no matter which runway they choose.
