3. Quietly Saving
I'm Weenie. In 2014, I came across the term FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early). I set up this blog, devised a plan, began to save more and invest.I try to balance enjoying my life in the present while attempting to plan for the future. My plan is to be in a position to not have to work full-time (or at all) by 2025 (or 2024, depending on whether I want to do 'one more year').This blog is not a 'how-to' guide and doesn't give advice, it's just a journal documenting my progress, plus some of my occasionally mad thoughts and ideas.

4. Having Fun Cracking Retirement
Articles on retirement planning, retired life, travel, health and everything related to retirement. I took early retirement in 2011, having just turned 56. Over the past 5 years, I have been making the most of all the free time that retirement brings. I'm fortunate enough to be healthy and also have enough money to indulge my passions of travel, investing and working with metal of all shapes and styles.
