About this listen
Andrew Rosen, CFP®, CEP, writes in a Kiplinger article how to walk through several common reasons people keep working — even as retirement comes into view.
Rather than looking at money first, the author looks at motivation and breaks it into five broad categories:
Category 1: I must keep working
Category 2: I probably should keep working
Category 3: I want to keep working
Category 4: I'm afraid to retire
Category 5: I don't know why I'm still working
The author suggests borrowing from a concept by Artiste called "First Principles Thinking". Listen in for the answer.
Also, our listener Maria asks about the timing of your first RMD (Required Minimum Distribution): "If we want to skip our 1st RMD and take two the following year, how does that work?"
