There are some distinct reasons I began planning for retirement this year first off realistically I don’t want a traditional retirement. I want to step away from living the go go go life here in the United States and I want to return to Mexico. Living in Mexico slows down the need to pursue the things that drive me nuts here in the United States. Keeping up with the Jones’ just get’s thrown out with the bath water.
