Retire to Something: Finding Purpose Beyond Work
Retirement is about more than choosing a date or reaching a financial target. In this episode of Retirement Living Your Way, Greg Black and Troy Theobald speak with Ged Silva about the life-changing events that prompted him to retire in his mid-50s and rethink what he wanted from the years ahead. Ged shares how he prepared financially, navigated the loss of career identity and found a renewed sense of purpose by following one powerful piece of advice: retire to something, not from something. From restructuring his finances to learning to ride a motorbike and touring New Zealand, his story shows how thoughtful planning, clear purpose and a willingness to remove excuses can turn retirement into the beginning of an exciting new chapter.
