4. Financial Independence.
Nothing brings more peace of mind than having control over your finances. Whether you have a lot or a little, knowing how to manage your resources, having a fixed income, or saving will give you freedom. Family won’t always be able to help you, but you can prepare yourself to be independent.
5. A purposeful routine.
After retirement, it’s common to feel “adrift.” But the truth is, every day can have meaning if you give it meaning. Volunteering, hobbies, travel, personal projects, classes… Having a reason to get up every morning keeps your spirit young.
