The Ultimate Retirement Breakthrough
This is the story of our ultimate retirement breakthrough with the sincere wish that we can inspire you to take a positive step towards achieving your ultimate retirement breakthrough and dream retirement lifestyle …. whatever your age
We don’t know what your retirement looks like to you NOW as you are reading this but for us it was knowing that when the time came we would reap the rewards of what we had worked hard for.
- Time to travel and see the world
- Time to have some fun
- Time to spend with our family and especially our grand-children
- Tme to do something we were passionate about
Our “Ultimate Retirement Breakthrough” Story
It had always been our dream to retire at 50 but with five children between us and a successful management consultancy practice working 6-7 days a week, 10-12 hours a day we parked that dream for a while.
Then in 2005 we took the plunge to create a property portfolio to fund our retirement and all was looking rosey until the worldwide recession of 2008. Who could have predicted that! The result was that our pension nest egg was blown out of the water and our property portfolio was in danger of becoming a milstone round our necks.
We really couldn’t see ourselves working for the rest of our lives living hand to mouth on a tiny pension
Then our ultimate retirement breakthrough took us to online entrepreneurship – more by luck than choice if we’re honest. We were looking for online business education for our clients to help them to leverage the internet to grow their businesses and that research took us on an exciting journey of discovery ..
One that would lead to us creating an online business and giving notice to our management consultancy clients and starting on a brand new adventure.
One of our favourite quotes comes from Brian Tracy really says it all …
“I found that every single successful person I’ve ever spoken to had a turning point and the turning point was where they made a clear, specific, unequivocal decision that they were not going to live like this anymore. Some people make that decision at 15 and some people make it at 50 and most never make it at all …”
Making a decision as you read this will be THE MOST IMPORTANT one you ever make especially if you are in your 40’s, 50’s or 60’s and your best made plans are not quite what you hoped they would be.
We’re huge evangelists for mid life entrepreneurship and adamantly believe that this is an alternative that anyone in or approaching retirement should consider given the opportunity versus being forced into a career change through circumstances.
In fact according to a recent article in Forbes, 52% of new home business owners are over 55 and 79% are over 45
Now we know that if you ask many in the corporate world why they haven’t gone into business for themselves they can produce a list as long as their arm as to why it is not a viable alternative – risk of failure, start up costs, no idea how to start, not enough business skills, don’t have the energy – and the list goes on.
Strangely enough that was us too! Because we were not actually aware of the alternatives out there (especially the online entrepreneurship alternatives) and honestly we know entrepreneurial start-ups are not for everyone (especially in the traditional “bricks and mortar” sense). However we sincerely believe that you owe it to yourself to explore with an open mind if online entrepreneurship might be just the solution you have been looking for … We would never have considered starting another business had we not discovered online entrepreneurship and in particular affiliate marketing (even though we didn’t know what it was at the time) Sometimes luck does play a part!
The Ultimate Retirement Breakthrough And Why Mid Life Entrepreneurship
- You have your years of wisdom and maturity on your side
- Your children have probably left home and you can focus on you
- Mid Life Entrepreneurship can be the solution to an underfunded retirement
- The opportunity to gain control of your life and your future
- Your enterprise can be funded with existing equity and/or retirement equity
- Flexibility to accommodate your dreams and goals as a lifestyle entrepreneur
All of these are great but for us the ultimate retirement breakthrough was that we could rescue our retirement and be able to build a business online that we could run from anywhere in the world giving us the freedom to travel that we always saw our retirement fulfilling.
Now it may be that travel is not what floats your boat but there will be things that you really want to do that you might envisage being impossible if you don’t take action today!
Online entrepreneurship may not be your choice but it’s one of the simplest ways to get started to achieve your ultimate retirement breakthrough and our top recommendation – because we’ve done it and we know it can work.
Top Tips For Starting An Online Business
First and foremost do your due diligence and then when you are satisfied that you want to proceed then find someone you know, like and trust to work with. These are our top 3 :-
- You have to work with people who have done what you want to do and are willing to help and guide you
- You have to have a proven system that’s simple to follow and will work for you even if you’ve never done anything like this before
- You need a personal coach who will take you by the hand and show you exactly what to do step by step
We know from personal experience that these are the essential elements and missing for most people searching to start an online business – they might get one but rarely all three.
