You don´t retire on money. It´s a lie. This truly matters….
Posting this from Iceland. I love it here.
Not just for the scenery,
but for spending 1 on 1 time with my dad.
He’s 75 now. I’m 51.
We talk about life and share memories of all the cool stuff we did together through the years.
My dad is an ex-finance guy, so I loved sharing this following insight with him.
Think of life as a game where every experience earns you ‘Epic Experience Points.’
What is your ultimate goal?
Die with a High Score in your ‘Epic Experience Bank.’
Because here’s the bottom line:
Your experiences, not your money, determine your life’s true value.
You retire on your memories, not your money.
Simple concept. Powerful results.
Let’s break it down as an investment strategy:
Picture this:
Five years ago, you took your family on an epic 5-week US adventure.
Cruising the West Coast in a massive camper, exploring Las Vegas, creating lifetime memories. Just thinking about it gives you goosebumps.
Initial score: 100 points
But here’s where it gets interesting:
These 100 points generate ‘memory dividends’ every year:
• Reminiscing with family
• Sharing stories with friends
• Reliving moments through photos
• Adding 5 points annually to your score
• Multiplied by each family member’s experience
Four years ago:
Epic fishing trip in Canada with friends.
Another 100 points added.
Plus 5 points of annual ‘memory dividends.’ And so it continues… One experience stacking upon another.
ETCETCETC
The Investment Strategy:
– Start young (early investment)
– Share experiences (spread the wealth)
– Add frequently (dollar-cost averaging)
– Let compound interest work its magic
– Inspire others to do the same (bonus returns)
Your Experience Portfolio grows through:
• Initial investments (experiences)
• Annual dividends (memories)
• Compound interest (shared stories)
• Multiplier effect (involving others)
Think about it:
• Money sitting in your account: Zero memory dividends
• Epic experiences: Lifetime returns
