Every couple of weeks, I plan on holding a JOURNAL CLUB. We’ll pick a topic, and after manually filtering through the millions of articles out there, I’ll present a few that I think are extremely helpful. This will help lay the foundation for some of the topics that we’ll dig into on this website.
This week’s journal club will focus on one of the main themes of this site –
EARLY RETIREMENT
While there are many ways to carve up this subject, for this edition, I wanted to find different examples of exactly what the game plan is for some of my fellow bloggers.
While I believe retirement looks different for everyone, if you don’t have the end goal in mind, it’s really hard to make sure you’re on the right path. Each of these posts not only have a finish line in mind, they’ve actually tried to figure out how to get there on paper.
As you follow me on this blog, you’ll be able to see my journey unfold. My end goal is clear and I’m trying to get there by replacing my current income with side passive income streams.
