Part I: Unlearning the Retirement Fantasy
Original edition · page 10
The first step is not abandoning the retirement system.
It is seeing it clearly.
These chapters separate the account from the investment, the familiar from the safe, and the default retirement story from the life the reader is actually trying to build.
The goal is not rebellion.
It is a better map.
