RETIREMENT QUOTE FOR TODAY! “Don't simply retire from something; have something to retire to.” —Harry Emerson Fosdick
I'm still finding this incredible! My earlier video, 'Retirement and the Fading Phase' was by far my most successful as far as viewing numbers. Now, a few days later, and posted only three days ago, "Why it's best to retire early" has eclipsed it: 23,131 views.
I can only say thank you to you all for so much support.
Well, it works! In this post I'd like to say a big thank you to all of you out there who have taken the trouble to look at and listen to what this old guy has to say about Retirement. I know I don't know it all. I now that there is a huge amount of experience out there - life experience. A wise man once said, "Do not cherish opinions." Makes sense, for our opinions can, and do change over time. So thank you. I'm grateful to your posting likes and comments, and I truly hope that what I place on here by way of tips, hints, and general knowledge, that it is of benefit to you.
"What's on my mind?" the YouTube System asks. Well, I had no idea this part of the system existed until my son, Marty - who has a very successful channel called, Marty's Garden - rang me to tell me that I can actually write stuff on here for people to look at. In that way they can get some idea of what's coming up, should I choose to talk about it in advance.
I am astounded how these videos on Retirement have taken off. I started posting videos on a variety of subjects about seven years back and received a possible 3,000 views and 30 or so subscribers. In March last year I posted my first video on Retirement. It was just an 'off the top of my head' idea at the time. I called it, Some thoughts on Retirement and, Voila! More views on one video than a combination of ALL of the views placed on earlier ones. So 3,000 views have gone up to around 130,000 views, and subscribers from 30 to nearly 2,000.
I feel blessed!
