Informed Choice Radio Personal Finance Podcast


May 4, 2020

Lockdown life has given many of us a glimpse of what our retirement might look like.

What will you do with your free time when you retire?

My guest on the podcast today is FIRE practitioner Fritz Gilbert.

Fritz retired early after more than three decades in corporate America, where he progressed through the various levels of a multinational corporation serving the global aluminium industry.

He’s the founder of award-winning FIRE blog, The Retirement Manifesto, which is focused on helping people achieve a great retirement.

I spoke to Fritz from his idyllic cabin in Blue Ridge, Georgia.

In this conversation, he explains why accurate assumptions about retirement spending are essential, how right now is the perfect opportunity for a ‘test retirement’, the importance of finding structure in your day, and much more.

Here’s my conversation with Fritz Gilbert, author of Keys to a Successful Retirement, in episode 493 of Informed Choice Radio.
