Welcome

Hello and Welcome to “Retired at 47″.  So you’re wondering if I actually retired at 47?  Yes and no (but mostly yes).  I did in fact escape my corporate job after 25 years in that environment.  That was almost a year ago, and I gave myself some time to figure out what I wanted to do next.  I now have a small, part-time business that is still evolving.   But the change did not happen overnight - it was something I planned for and worked towards for almost 15 years.

This blog is my space where I can hopefully share with you some of what I did right, some of what I did wrong, and thoughts for the future.  I love to share ideas and resources, so please jump right in and ask questions, make suggestions, or just hang out.
