Summary
Fritz Gilbert blogs at The Retirement Manifesto, where he provides practical financial independent and retirement planning guidance for people within ten years of retirement. His articles are regularly part of our weekend reading for retirees, and I think he's one of the best retirement writers working today.
After 33 years in corporate America, Fritz and his wife retired at the age of 55 in June of 2018, sold their primary home, and moved to a cabin in the North Georgia mountains when he's not traveling the country in his RV.
Today, Fritz and I are talking about the big things he's learned from his early retirement and second act as a retirement writer, the big regrets that so many retirees have and how to avoid them, and how to tackle the many challenges of retirement that don't concern money.
