Title: The Dash is What Matters
Topic: Retirement
Discussed by Joel Malick
with The Afterwork (www.theafterwork.net/)


Part 1 of 2

Some have their life’s verse engraved on their tombstone. But in reality, it’s what’s in the dash that really matters. Is it too late to fill in the dash?

Joel Malick is the co-author of a new book, along with Alex Lippert. Joel is a partner with Steadfast Wealth Co. in Colorado Springs, CO. He says: “It’s just not dollars and cents that will make you happy during your retirement years.”

Questions/Issues Discussed:

If retirement is the zenith, the climax to life, why is the divorce rate of those 50 and above skyrocketing? Is the divorce rate for those over 60 even higher? Joel’s response is a quote from Henry Ford: “If I asked the people what they wanted they would have said a faster horse.”

What does “retirement” mean? Does it actually have a negative connotation?

Once we reach the retirement stage of life, are people too often lost and bored, spending too much time looking at a screen? Joel points out that Christians are not exempt from retirement. While we are told not to worry about the future, we are told to prepare.

Can retirement be fun? Absolutely!

Questions/Issues Discussed:

What is the big retirement lie?

Is staying busy the best strategy? Should all retirees have a “mission”?

Joel shares that there is a difference between being “busy with a bucket list”, and being on “mission”. “Being busy is not living a life of meaningfulness,” he says.
