Retiring while you work

Retiring while you work is possible no matter your level of wealth. In his book, The Currency of Time, author David Adams introduces his three buckets of life approach to create fluid life financial plans, not emergency retirement quitting plans. Using the three buckets approach will help you feel more free, joyful, and fulfilled.

We can all find joy in the journey of life while still satisfying our ambitions, goals, health, and personal and spiritual lives. Adams teaches us that if we learn to prioritize living life while also planning for the future, we can find the kind of work-life balance that fuels dreams.
