And on to the show notes!!

We’ve been sold a very specific version of success:

Work for forty years.
Retire at sixty-five.
Finally enjoy your life.

But what if retirement, at least as we think about it, is the wrong goal entirely?

In this episode, Tyler makes the case that the wealthiest people don’t retire — they redesign work.

Because the real goal isn’t escaping your life.

It’s building one you don’t constantly want to escape from.

In this episode, Tyler covers:

Tyler also shares a more personal reflection on leaving a stable career to build something of his own — and why uncertainty, while uncomfortable, can be worth it.

The core idea:

Real wealth isn’t retiring from your life. It’s building one you don’t need to retire from.

Because the goal was never the finish line.

It was finding a game worth playing for a very long time.

Hope this gives you something to think about this week.
