Episode 3365: Jeremy challenges the notion that earning income after early retirement equals failure, sharing his own experiment with seasonal work as a UPS driver. His candid reflection reveals how flexibility, self-awareness, and reevaluating what “retirement” means can lead to greater peace of mind, without compromising your values or financial independence. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.gocurrycracker.com/failing-at-early-retirement/ Quotes to ponder: "Should you feel like you failed at early retirement if you decide to do some paid work? No." "The greatest financial benefit was that it reminded me of just how much time and energy is required to make $100." "Try some things, no big deal. Maybe you will enjoy some work and find it brings value to your life."

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
