Quote of the Day
"My advice to other retirees is to stay busy, stay healthy, avoid falling prey to scary news headlines, and spend time doing those things that bring you and others joy and fulfillment. Put your financial life on auto-pilot to the extent possible, and be grateful for the good things each of us has."
(Robert Cochran)
