SPECIAL MID-SHOW GUEST: Jim Brangenberg (turning 55)

Prepping for Retirement 101. When we step into our retirement years, we step into a world of wonder. A world we have dreamt about for decades and a world that can sometimes be filled with worry, fear, and doubt. It all comes down to attitude. But I’m not there yet. I will be 55 this year and I still have time to plan. I know I will face a road with a t intersection. I know that if I take a left, it will lead me down the road of self-focus with my retirement years focused on me and my wants. I also know that if I take a right turn, it will lead me down the road of being others focused which is a road paved with good intentions and marked with acts of service and making a difference. So, it’s my turn to talk with Bruce Bruinsma, the founder of the Retirement Reformation, about what it looks like to prepare for my retirement years to be focused on making a difference while we specifically address my story of “I’m turning 55 this year, am I ready and preparing for my retirement years.”

Although Jim is not yet at retirement age, he and his wife Martha lived twenty years residing in 55+ communities in Florida. Their experience has highlighted the harsh reality of retirement in the United States, showing the discontent that can come when people lack purpose in their later years. Surrounded by parents in their nineties and friends in their sixties, seventies, and eighties, Jim and Martha find motivation in observing those who live out their faith in retirement, while also witnessing the frustration of those who do not.

Jim has been hosting the iRetire4Him Podcast for nearly five years, has spoken at conferences, and has co-authored the book iRetire4Him: Unlock God’s Purpose for Your Retirement, with his father-in-law. Although he currently Works4Him, he looks forward to Retiring4Him one day!
