Welcome to The Rich Life

We started happyretirement.net to be your resource for the good life. Not The Good Life, Hollywood-style, as in, what you buy or what you own, but the good life, as in, the passion, relationships, and joy that make your life rich and full. We focus on resources for people at or near retirement age, but we like to think that our blogs, video clips, and products – particularly listening to Mark speak — can be inspiring and interesting to everyone!

Please, read and follow our blogs through RSS, download the free e-book, and come back often for articles, jokes, inspiring videos, and sharing what makes life – in retirement or before – truly rich.

During the transition to retirement we want you to discover those activities that drive you – that you can’t wait to get back to - and to fill your life with them. Most people spend very little of their working life doing what they are best suited for. After retirement you choose what you spend your time on for the best retirement. It’s time… to do what you’ve always wanted to do.
