A listener in his early 60s thought he had five more years of work ahead, until a surprise layoff changed everything. In this episode, Matt and Jacob unpack a listener question about how to move forward after being forced into retirement earlier than expected. They walk through key considerations for anyone in a similar situation: how to handle severance and stock options, when (or if) to pay off a mortgage, how to approach early healthcare coverage before Medicare kicks in, and whether finding part-time work or consulting could be part of the solution.

Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:
