Like millions of Americans, my husband and I have experienced all kinds of money-sucking adventures, including job loss, two failed start-ups, serious illness, and multiple moves around the globe. About the time we hit middle age, we realized just how far behind we were in retirement savings. Rather than fall into a pit of despair (which truly was tempting), we got serious. Before you read any fur...
Like millions of Americans, my husband and I have experienced all kinds of money-sucking adventures, including job loss, two failed start-ups, serious illness, and multiple moves around the globe. About the time we hit middle age, we realized just how far behind we were in retirement savings. Rather than fall into a pit of despair (which truly was tempting), we got serious. Before you read any further, though, I want you to know that every move we made was deliberate and, frankly, not always fun. We didn't do anything that you can't adapt to your own situation.

Growing up in a turbulent household taught me to expect the worst. Then one day I found £20 in the street and shifted my thinking Growing up, I was envious of one type of person.

I was hypersensitive to the ease with which they sailed through exams, social gatherings or teenage milestones with a sunny conviction that things would more or less work out. To me, they were the chosen people. “It’ll be fine,” one such friend would reassure me. “Or you could embarrass yourself,” my mind would purr like a villain. “Be rejected. Fail.” I was a chronic worrier. A negative Nancy. I couldn’t fathom that people’s brains weren’t hardwired to compulsively fear things might go wrong. I grew up as the eldest daughter in a turbulent household where my father’s moods would plummet quickly and I walked on a knife-edge.
