Creative Retirement

Anyone who knows me, (and I know me very well), can tell that I am not a good money manager. Heck, I can’t even manage bad money.

But we made it to retirement, and now the true confession time has come. We are not well off.

We are juggling our bills and adjusting to the ebb and flow of the stock market, especially since 2008 and 2009, and 2010, and you know the present.

So why am I emptying my soul on this blog?

Because we have had to learn the tips and tricks (and still are, daily), I want to record it in case any one else out there who reads this just might heed our experience.

But I know I taught high school for 31 years, and I have only been retired for three years—you kids don’t heed anyone’s experiences. So maybe this time, some one might—it could be you.
