Welcome to the Early Retirement Roadmap podcast, your audio guide to preparing for and thriving in early retirement!

If you’re dreaming of retiring early but feeling overwhelmed about where to start, or if you’re already retired and looking to make the most of your freedom, you’re in the right place. 

I’m your host Mike Upland, and I successfully retired at 55 in 2024. Through this podcast, I share my personal early retirement journey—the victories, the challenges, and all the essential lessons I’ve learned along the way.

Each episode delivers practical strategies and real-world insights on crucial topics like financial planning, health insurance, tax strategies, developing the right mindset, and finding purpose in retirement. You’ll hear candid discussions about the realities of early retirement, actionable tips for building and managing wealth, and inspiring stories to help you navigate your own path to early retirement or thrive in it if you're already there!

Whether you’re just starting to explore early retirement or fine-tuning your existing plans, this podcast provides the roadmap you need to build a financially secure and fulfilling post-career life.
