This post speaks to me, because, essentially, this is the transition that I made. While I initially set out to retire in my early-to-mid-forties, by the time I got there, I had developed this website and online community and was not remotely ready to give it up.
However, working remotely has been a blessing. The flexibility in terms of time, location, and commitment has allowed my family and me to spend weeks and months traveling in Mexico, Spain, Europe, and more..
With the right kind of job, working “from home” or wherever you want to be in the world, could be a great alternative or transition to full retirement. Obviously, this is not a workable option for many physicians at the moment, but it’s certainly becoming more common, particularly for clinic-based doctors and radiologists.
