This site is devoted to folks who would rather retire than continue to work... I would think that would include most everyone.

This site does not tell you how to make more money, but rather how to spend less and enjoy yourselves more...

Let's get started...but first take a look at the left column of the page...the couple on the stern of a sailboat...you too can as happy as they look...I know...it's a picture of yours truly and his soulmate since 1975.

A message from the editor of Frugal Retirement Living

I am currently 74 and we had been retired for 26 years, we would not trade our retirement years and experiences for any amount of money... We learned long ago the futility of swapping time working for dollars...it is not worth it folks.

Take another look at the couple on the stern of their sailboat Shadowtime...somewhere in the Caribbean... And tell me they miss the office.

Do not give up on retirement

It is 2020, and some folks wanting to retire just think they cannot retire...we are here to help you realize you can if you choose low cost ways of living.

As I write this I am truly amazed that the information contained within, is as pertinent today as it was when the site was first started in 2009...12 years later, the 350 pages on this site are still relevant in 2020.

We are not hippies, daredevils or anyone out of the ordinary... We would rather be retired on less than working to acquire more retirement dollars.

We will show you why you should retire as soon as possible... or we will at least make you think twice.

One of the saddest things that I hear is... that I cannot afford to retire .

You should not say that until you have investigated all lifestyles that cost less to enjoy.

We can introduce you to the frugal retirement living lifestyles that we have enjoyed, you will discover that they are painless, safe, practical and frugal.

Have you considered these frugal lifestyles?

None of these options are cheap living, they are just living cheaply... There is a big difference between the two phrases... one involves sacrifice the other embraces retirement.
