About this listen
How to Retire Happy, Wild, and Free offers inspirational advice on how to enjoy life to its fullest. The key to achieving an active and satisfying retirement involves a great deal more than having adequate financial resources; it also encompasses all other aspects of life - interesting leisure activities, creative pursuits, physical well-being, mental well-being, and solid social support.
In How to Retire Happy, Wild, and Free, bestselling author Ernie J. Zelinski guides you to:
- Gain courage to take early retirement; in fact, the earlier the better.
- Put money in proper perspective so that you don’t need a million dollars to retire.
- Generate purpose in your retirement life with meaningful creative pursuits.
- Follow your dreams instead of someone else’s.
- Take charge of your mental, physical, and spiritual health.
- Create and maintain great friends - a key ingredient for a great retirement.
- Above all, make your retirement years the best time of your life.
With its friendly format and positive tone, How to Retire Happy, Wild, and Free offers retirement wisdom that you won’t get from your financial advisor. This wisdom will prove to be much more important for creating an active, satisfying, and happy retirement than how much money you have saved.

Wonderful book
I am in the early process of figuring out, how to live my best retired life. I have put as much energy in learning how to be good at it, as I did in my career.
Until this book, I really didn’t find a book that grabbed me. In fact, it had even occurred to me that I might one day write another book, and this one on living your best retired life.
But after having listened to this book, I realized that there is no point in writing a book on the subject as there is no way I can write a better, and more impactful book, then this one is.
Thx to the author as he has just saved me from hundreds, if not thousands, of hours have been saved.
