Planning to retire while still fully engaged in the day to day work world can feel a little confusing at times. To help I read other retirement blogs and books, that is when I have the time!
Today I noticed a new post on Ernie Zelinski’s blog after no activity for many months. Granted it’s an Amazon blog, he may have another somewhere.
The announcement is that he has 2 new free ebooks coming out. Here is the full post.
“I am creating a new book of quotations called The 777 Best Things Ever Said about Money and another book called The Joy of Being Retired: 101 Reasons Why Retirement Rocks (and Work Sucks)! that will soon be available as Free E-books on my websites. Another of my diversions is orchestrating one-page websites of retirement resources. Check out Free Retirement Speeches, The Retirement Letters Café, Retirement Jobs at the Real Success Resource Center, The Retirement Gift Ideas Café, The Retirement Poems Café, and Retirement Humor at the Retirement Jokes Café. “
With only 9 months to go until my own long-awaited retirement, I relish everything this man has to say on the subject. His writing contains an over abundance of wisdom and humor. In fact I’m going to re-read the 2 books I have of his on my shelf. I need the boost in confidence that I am truly making the right decision.
And I know that, yes, I am! Viva la retirement!

There you are! You haven’t posted in awhile. I look forward to more stuff from him. It’s very exciting to read his books pre-retirement and picture your retired life. As you saw on my last post, I wish he would write one about how to talk about your life once you’ve done it!

Hi Syd,
Check out chapter 2 of “How to Retire Happy, Wild, and Free.” I read it before responding. The whole chapter is worth reading, but you’ll find his more direct response on page 49.

You’re right. In fact, that exact portion of the book was the inspiration for my blog’s title “Retirement: A Full-Time Job. ” I remember reading that chapter and thinking of getting “business cards” printed up. I should actually do that. I could hand them out and maybe get some more readers!

Great idea. That is so cool, I need to read the chapter again. Work is flooding my synapses, I desperately need to get some inspiration. I’ll keep reading your blog, too!
