THE VIEW FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN… Getting to retirement is like getting to the top of Mount Everest: only part of the journey, and not even the hardest part. Everyone has a fantasy of retirement: maybe it’s cold cocktails on a hot beach, hitting the links all day, or taking a whirlwind tour of Europe.
