How To Retire Early

Retire Early – Live Well

Is it possible to Retire Early and Live Well?

Retiring has always been a cause for worry for most people, by the typical age of retirement, people have seen the best and the worst the world has to offer. A large percentage of retiree’s will find themselves living life on reduced income or on a pension, which can be difficult. Typical age related health problems and family problems often aggravate this situation.

I know many people who have worked at two – sometimes three – jobs in order to have something of value in their bank accounts by the time they retire. This definitely takes it’s toll on your body and the best years of your life go by worrying about the old age. If this sounds too familiar then we are probably on the same page and you will surely get to learn a thing or two by reading on.

I have good news!

good newsYou don’t need to be in your sixties or seventies to retire. A big statement, I know, and it might sound ridiculous but there are ways you could earn and save enough to be able to Retire Early and Live Well.

Retiring in your youth can have great advantages. To begin with, you will be in your best physical shape if you retire in your youth. That means, the peak years of your life can be devoted to the things you love the most, or the things you have wanted to do for a long time, but your work schedule would never allow you to.

I want to be very clear here – Retiring Early will take some work on your part, but on this page I am going to attempt to show you how you can achieve Early Retirement, giving you the freedom to enjoy your life while doing something you are truly passionate about,

Retiring Early can benefit virtually everyone but, we are going to take a look at some sample cases that represent a larger section of society, who could benefit by reading on:-

College students and fresh University graduates

college studentsIf you are a college student or a fresh university graduate, you will have, at one point or another, had to manage on a stringent budget by working at part time jobs. College students all over the world face similar problems. Things can quickly get more difficult and finding yourself in financial dire straits is never a pleasant experience.

That’s why having a back-up plan is always the sensible thing to do. Earning money on the side is one thing and making a living working from home is another. That’s where great online services like Wealthy Affiliate come in – please read on!

Working from home Moms

work at home momsWorking-from-home-Moms also face similar, if not more challenging, circumstances. Managing family affairs, kids, their schooling and above all managing to make do with a fixed budget can be tiresome and not very fulfilling. That’s why internet marketing and affiliate networking is a great asset for Moms who can devote some hours per week to achieve their goals.

There are many expenses involved, being a Mom and working a traditional 9 to 5 job. Child care is so expensive these days, then you have to get to and from work, buy lunches (as you will probably be too tired to pack them). You will need a decent wardrobe of clothes. By the time you have paid your expenses, you could find that most of you wage is gone.

There are so many advantages to being a work from home Mom. The most obvious is, you will be bringing up your own children, and not leaving them in the hands of strangers. You will have time to pack nutritious lunches and help your children with their homework.

Work from home jobs for the Disabled

Another cross section of the society that can immensely benefit from rewarding work-from-home opportunities that provide you with enough money to retire early and live well are the handicapped and/or disabled people. Truly unfortunate circumstances leave the disabled with few opportunities to earn a decent living, let alone retiring well.

Hence, working online without letting the barrier of physical disabilities come in the way can be a great choice to be independent and live with pride. Work from home jobs for the disabled bring a sense of security and meaning into the life such people. Wealthy Affiliate and its associated marketing tools make for a wonderful source of income for the disabled. It’s not easy money- most definitely not- but if you work hard towards it, it can be an extremely profitable endeavour.

Jobs for people with criminal records

I can think of another set of people, a delicate affair really, that can take advantage of retiring early by learning Affiliate Marketing. Jobs for people with criminal records can be difficult to come by, if not outright next to impossible. Such people, after completing due retribution time and correction time, should have equal standing and equal chance to earn an honest living. In such cases, various ways to earn money online by setting up a website can be just the thing that allows them to make their own way in the world.

These are just a few sectors that could benefit from a starting a home based business. I will attempt to explore these sectors and a few others in more depth at a later date.

So, how does one go about doing these things online?

thinkingWork at home jobs with no start-up cost aren’t an easy exercise. Drawing from my own experiences with a lot of tools and services on the internet that promise you a handsome income with no work involved, the only advice I can give is to be cautious. Carrying out some research of your own is always helpful and will let you gain some insight into how these things work. Or alternatively, you can’t go wrong if you go with widely trusted and popular tools like Wealthy Affiliate.

What could Wealthy Affiliate do for you?

Wealthy Affiliate could help you to spend quality time with your loved ones day in and day out. As I often like to put it, you can lead the happy life of a Young Retiree as if every day was Christmas! You could take vacations to the exotic places you have always thought about in your daydreams. You could go on the adventurous journeys that you have longed to go on.

retirementTravel is a very realistic option, living the Wealthy Affiliate lifestyle. The internet has made it truly possible to run this business from anywhere in the world. Imagine, sitting by the pool in some exotic location, laptop at the ready. It is even possible nowadays to run this business entirely from your mobile device.

Simply put, Wealthy Affiliate is the best resource I have found (and I have looked at many), for starting up with your own home based business from scratch. They will help you regarding virtually everything- right from choosing your perfect niche market, to creating the perfect content. Wealthy Affiliate has great interactive learning centers that will walk you through every tiny detail of affiliate marketing.

In addition, Wealthy Affiliate also has a large community forum where you can post your queries. It’s very much likely that someone has encountered the same problem as you before and they will surely help you get your ways around the obstacles. After all, it’s a community service that is maintained by the goodwill of the users. You can check out my detailed Wealthy Affiliate Review here.

    Hello Kerry,
    I read the section on people with criminal records with keen interest.
    I worked as a corrections officer for fifteen years in a local county jail and I would see the same people over and over again.
    I would ask them what happened this time, the answer was always the same, I couldn’t find a job so my PO put me back in her to motivate me.
    I know a lot of people in this situation and I will be directing them towards WA as well.
    Great information,
    Thanks

      Hi San,

      Wealthy Affiliate is the perfect answer for people with criminal records as it can allow them to earn a living without prejudice. That is why it’s so great for people with disabilities too.

      I actually think that Wealthy Affiliate is for anyone, as long as they are prepared to do the work.

      Thanks for the feedback.

    This sounds so promising. I have tried so many different things to make money on-line which has resulted in a lot of frustration. So many scams that suck you in. I like your post and recommendation of Wealthy Affiliate, not a get rich quick scam but a means to make money through hard work. Thanks so much for your post.

      Thanks Mark,

      I have been scammed a few times myself before I found Wealthy Affiliate, so I know how it feels. I am always confident to promote WA as I know I am recommending a quality program.

      Most things that are worthwhile come through hard work, but working with WA is enjoyable and very satisfying.

    Hi Kerry.
    I agree with you. Each of us has such experiences. But most people deny them and focuses on how to rid their dreams off just to keep a mediocre pay.

    I am a doctor and in my country, Colombia, the exercise of my profession is at a fever and nasty point. The only way I can be a good doctor is by being independent and cutting off the ordinary employment relationship. That is, making money by other means.

    This article is excellent and offers a very good alternative to typical office work.

      Hi Javier,

      Sometimes we need to think outside the box, for sure.

      I used to be one of those people who had a mediocre job and was frightened of losing it, but I did lose it and it turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to me.

      It is hard to understand that as a Doctor, you still need to make money by other means, but isn’t it great that we can? I love what I am doing here at Wealthy Affiliate.

      Thank you for the feedback.

    Hi Kerry, a clear and helpful article. By reading this, I could not help but struggle with the expression retiring early. And if you go and set up your own business with a website as foundation with WA, would you call that retirement. Looking at myself, my last employment contract completed, now 60, but working full time on two websites, is this retirement? Should the word early not be replaced by at any time? Cheers, Jerry

      Hi Jerry,

      Yes, maybe it should say ‘retire at any time’, as I now know many people of all ages that are making a full time career with Wealthy Affiliate. And yes, having your own website is still work, but it is flexible, enjoyable and you can do it from anywhere.

      Thanks for the feedback.

    Hello again Kerry. Even though this post is about retiring early, I wouldn’t mind working on if it was at home in my own time. If I want a day off, no big deal. If I want to start at midday, who’s to stop me?

    Wealthy Affiliate allows all that, because it’s your own business, done your way.

    Another good article that covers all the bases. Early retirement means you get to live your life for you and not your boss. So it’s a no brainer to me.

      Hi Jay,

      We are going to have to stop meeting like this, lol.

      I also love the freedom that having my own business gives me. No more alarm clocks for me, Wealthy Affiliate makes that possible and I couldn’t be happier than doing what I am doing.

      I hope you are having a great day.

    Hello there Kelly Bramham,

    The idea of being able to retire early sounds like a dream come true. I have also started an online business within Wealthy Affiliate and in doing so I have achieved a lot thus far. One day I hope I can obtain financial freedom utilizing this unique platform. I never thought about a criminal in the workforce struggling to find work could simply take advantage of an online business such as Wealthy Affiliate and retire aswell.

      I’m sure you will do great with Wealthy Affiliate and will achieve your dream of financial freedom, just keep at it.
      We all know how hard it is for anyone with a criminal record to get work. We all make mistakes and I believe there are lots of genuine ex-cons looking for a break. Wealthy Affiliate is definitely an option that is open to them.
      Thank you for your thoughts.

    This is great Kerry. I would love to ‘retire’ early and still be able to enjoy things I love before my time is up. I’m only 29, but striving to become the mom that can work from home, and who knows, in ten years or something, not even have to do much of that. I want to enjoy my children as much as I can while they’re still young. The hard part is all the hard work that comes up front. But I want to live like no one else now so that I can live like no one else in the future. Are you at that point where you can retire already? What would you say to someone like me just starting down that road in order to make it to the end? Thanks.

      Hi Sarah,

      Building a profitable online business does take some time, so my advice to you would be to spend every spare minute you have working on it. I don’t know how old your children are but maybe you could build your website around their interests and you could involve them in your efforts.

      I am not at the point where my website could totally support my retirement, but I am only on my 7th month with WA and I am making great progress.

      I wish you all the best.

    I think it’s very possible to retire early .Personally, I’m aiming to retire at 30 years old. Not literally, but monetarily… at least to say i’ve completed a steady retirement fund. I still love working and making music so I dont think I’ll be quite finnished with that at that point.

    Retire early sounds great. Unfortunately, most people are afraid to take action and make mistakes. I know this because I was in the position of being too afraid. Since I am still a college student, I notice many of my peers are not aware of the real life situation. Their mindset is still in the FUN zone. So it is quite challenging to share early retirementt plan with them. 😛
    As for me who understand the risk and reward, I prefer to work my butt off in the beginning, and enjoy much bigger reward in the future. I should be able to retire in 30’s. I wish..

      Hi Edy,

      If you could retire in your 30’s then you will be doing better than most. Just remember you will still need to be maintaining your website but you can do that no matter where you are in the world.

      I like your plan of working hard now so you will have a much bigger future.

      I know you will get there.

    Hi Kerry. I am on my 30s and I wished I could enjoy my young years by travelling a lot. As I live abroad and very far , I only have a chance to travel once to my hometown so, my holidays are dedicated to my family in Brasil. Therefore, it is hard to ask more holidays to travel with my wife to other places. The only solution to this, in my view is being an internet marketer and have the freedom that you talk about. I am also with wealthy affiliate and its being great, I really feel I am on the right path to reach that lifestyle before my 40s.

    Good article Kerry. There are many ways to make online. the problem is that most do it the wrong way or get caught up in all the scams that are out there. Wealthy Affiliate seems to be a good one. I checked it out and i’m impressed with how the give you step by step instructions. The free website is definitely a big selling point.

      Hi Andres,

      I pretty much got caught up with quite a few scams before I found WA. From experience I can honestly say that WA is the real deal and is the best place to learn internet marketing. The free websites are certainly a plus but the best part of WA for me is the training and support.

      Good luck with your ventures.

    Oh how nice it would be if I were actually able to retire early! That’s a dream that I have had for a very long time, and hopefully I can realize that dream through Wealthy Affiliate, as you have recommended. Does the monthly cost ever go up? I can try and swing the monthly fee if it remains the same.

    1. Kerry Bramham (Post author)

      Hi Christian,

      I don’t believe that the monthly fee for Wealthy Affiliate membership will go up, it is worth every cent to me anyway. Also, if you can manage it, it is worth going yearly as you get quite a big saving by doing so.

      I wish you every success.

    Your concept of working from home for the disabled resonates with what I’ve been thinking since working on this online marketing stuff.

    But it got me thinking, even with the power of online tools and websites, there must be a certain limitation that people with disabilities can work on.

    For example, how people with eyesight disabilities work on building their site? Do you have any real life case studies on how disabled people turn online marketing into a revenue generator from themselves?

      Hi Kenny Lee,

      I don’t personally know any sight impaired people working online but I do know there is software designed for sight impaired people to make it possible.

      I do however have a friend in a wheelchair who struggled to find employment but is now doing very well with his online business.

      Of course, it depends on the individual. There are very many able bodied people who might struggle with the concept of working online.

      I hope I have answered your question.
