Hello! Welcome to ThinkSaveRetire.com, a blog that hates conventional wisdom. Do you want to live differently, change your life and achieve your permanent paradise?
Think Save Retire is about ignoring conventional wisdom and instead focusing attention on YOU and what makes you happy and fulfilled. Whether you dream about quitting your job, traveling the world or just cozying up next to a fire for the next 20 years of your life, it doesn't matter. Your dreams are different, but very often, change requires a very similar mindset.
And, it starts with deciding to live differently.
Live Differently
Every day, people decide to live very different lives than the majority. The key to finding the happy place in your life is to understand what is most important to you. It all starts with understanding that life is a mind game thinking differently and figuring out your permanent paradise.
