Retired, Not Done: How Scott Garrett Took Control of His Financial Future
In this episode of Boldin Your Money, Steve Chen chats with Scott Garrett, a retired software engineer and active member of the Boldin community. Scott talks about how he went from selling forklift parts to leading tech teams, and why he and his wife decided to retire earlier than planned. After dealing with job stress from a company buyout and feeling like his work no longer aligned with his values, Scott realized he had saved enough and had the confidence, thanks to the Boldin platform to call it quits. They talk about real-life retirement planning stuff: how to handle your spending, adjust when the market changes, deal with health insurance, do smart tax moves, and how weird it feels to go from saving to spending. Scott also shares how he formed a small support group of other Boldin users to swap tips and stay motivated. The episode is packed with honest advice on what it really takes to retire early and stay on track, both financially and emotionally.
