I feel for their kids who may wake up one day to find out their parents need their financial assistance for the next 20 years or more. New Hampshire for the summer just sounds cool. :) Dave — Those for whom this epiphany hasn’t or won’t happen are careening towards a retirement for which they never planned.

When I turned 40, I took a look and despite being a real good saver, didn't like what I saw. A little research later and a whole new set of assumptions, and I am making it happen. Now I help others to figure out how to get to their dreams and then how to implement the wealth plan. Couldn't be happier. Let you know when I am settled into New Hampshire for the summer!

Darker and less optimistic at least I picked a rock video relevant to the target demographic. ;-) Palm Springs. IMO anything not coastal adjacent in Southern and Central California is too risky to consider. Census data show Palm Springs fully 1/3rd of the dwelling units unoccupied. Someday buying opportunities but even then investment opportunities will be special cases. In one of those weird coincidences I blogged about retirement risk this morning as well.
