Welcome to Retire Fabulously!

This website will show you how to envision, plan for, and enjoy the best retirement possible.

Here are some of the topics covered here:

  • How to live a balanced life that will keep you happy, healthy, and fulfilled
  • What factors are most important when choosing where you will live
  • How to gain clarity on the lifestyle you wish to live – and what it will cost
  • What you can do during your working years to prepare for a successful retirement (besides just saving money)
  • How to align your retirement dreams and visions with your spouse
  • How to anticipate and prepare for all the changes that will take place when you transition from work to leisure
  • How to envision your retirement in a positive, possibility-filled way

Most retirement resources are focused on financial planning. There’s no question that saving and financial planning are essential to a happy retirement. But there’s more to enjoying a happy retirement than just saving enough money.

There are far fewer resources devoted to helping you plan for what you’re going to do with all the new-found free time on your hands, or how to deal with the changes in your life that take place when you quit working or to help you anticipate choices you will make, such as where to live. That’s what this website is for.

This website will broaden your horizons and help you live a better life.
