“Live well today and live well tomorrow.” Roger Whitney

Known as the Retirement Answer Man, Roger helps people manage time to create a meaningful financial life and to work toward independence. As a financial planner and retirement guru you may be thinking he is all about saving now for tomorrow but contrary to this he is more about balance- how to have more today and tomorrow.

Roger Whitney has for 24 years expertly guided countless individuals and families to financial freedom and retirement. In this episode we discuss the ins and outs of money, investing and living a life with balance without sacrificing tomorrow. Importantly also we chat about how we can create a life that we don’t want to retire from.

Achieving financial freedom is more than investing! Financial freedom requires lots of continual little “right” decisions about priorities and time and resource allocation. It requires consistent quality, on-going attention and knowing the key questions to ask. Not easy!

Everyone can work towards financial freedom! I hope you enjoy this interview as much as I did and until next time, peace, passion, purpose and happy retirement.

This book is founded on the people of Babylon who were apparently the first people to discover the universal laws of prosperity. The author of this 1926 book discusses the laws that are timeless to this day and are laws that are to assist anyone and everyone in creating, growing and maintaining wealth.

Before I hear you say that people are born into money and others are more fortunate than others, that’s fine and perhaps this than isn’t a book for you nor would be my blog, it may just create some negative and burning emotions within you and that is not my intention.

It is true that from long, long ago man has decided that life was to be lived with a high standard and since we have always continually acted to improve our own prosperity. We have also continually increased quality of living as a race, and more recently we endeavour to improve mother earth.

Eric is the creator and host of The One You Feed Podcast and a lifestyle coach. He has taken his journey in life through some very tough times including alcohol addiction and becoming homeless. It is through these challenges he has learnt a heck of a lot and now wishes to share those with you.

He is a big believer in the wolf theory that he describes as that we become the one we feed. We both have both the good and bad wolf within us and if we feed the good wolf we become the good wolf - feed the bad wolf and we become the bad wolf.

In this episode we chat about addiction, the reason for it, the why, and also advice, tips and thoughts on how to overcome it. Noting that dramatic change is possible. We chat about the good and bad wolf and whether there is a need for balance. We also look at podcasting and the importance of starting and have a deeper reason to wanting to start other than something superficial or external.

I really hope you enjoy my conversation with Eric. If you would like to reach out to either of us please do and please leave your comments below. Until next time, peace, passion and purpose.
