Retirement… Retired:Continue Making Money …….
Making money is an on-going process. I have my small business company registered and running one year after my retirement. I knew nothing about the internet business otherwise, it would be an ideal opening as we are actually doing it at home free from interferences and what is more it is at our own pace of time?.
I retired from office at the age of fifty-five that is the legal retirement age in the private sector in Malaysia. This retirement differs with those of early retirement schemes or retire due to laid off. For obvious reasons these groups of people are of young energetic and still within the employment age limit. As the unemployment rate is on the uprising the best possible opportunity opened to retiree is to set up a small business entity to continue generating new incomes. Can anyone imagine living without an income?.
My wife once advised me to draw up a retirement plan similar to those of my former corporate business strategy. Such a plan I thought would be nothing more than just another good to read and nice to keep paper. My perception had proven me wrong and I forced myself to complete the plan. It was much too late, one year after instead of one or two years before the retirement. Lucky enough to realize from the spending pattern that I failed to adjust to that new environment, retired with no new incomes.
