Live Long &Prosper
My path to retiring at 50 and living to 120: Why this journey is for you.
3min Read ⏰
Welcome to &Prosper, where the path to financial independence and a long, healthy life come together. My mission? To retire by 50 and live to 120, while sharing my progress and learnings along the way. It sounds bold, maybe even a little impossible but every step of progress improves my life in a small way. And ultimately my hope is to offer the same to you.
Why This Matters
Most of us have been told the same thing: work hard, save up, retire in your mid-60s, and hopefully live comfortably for another couple of decades. But what if there’s a better way? What if we could rewrite the script to achieve both financial independence and a long, healthy life—one that allows us to spend more time doing what we love, with the people we care about, while staying healthy and active?
That’s at the core of &Prosper. It’s about escaping the rat race sooner, without compromising on a long, healthy life after. Imagine waking up at 50 and knowing that your working days are behind you. You’ve built the wealth you need to support the lifestyle you want, but you’re still young and vibrant, with decades ahead of you. That’s where longevity comes in.
Advances in healthcare science, biohacking, and wellness are making it more and more possible to live well beyond 100. In my own lifetime, the average lifespan here in Ireland has increased by 10 years to 83!
Why Follow This Journey?
I’m not a millionaire. I’m not some health guru with a secret formula to eternal youth. But I am curious and committed to achieving early retirement while living a longer, healthier life—and I want to bring you along with me as I figure it all out.
Here’s what you can expect when you follow my journey:
Practical Financial Guidance: I’ll share strategies on saving, investing, and growing wealth, breaking down complex financial concepts into easy-to-follow steps. Whether it’s passive income, smart investments, or lifestyle changes, we’ll explore it all together.
Longevity Insights: From cutting-edge research to simple daily habits, I’ll dig into what it takes to live not just longer but better! This is about more than just lifespan; it’s about healthspan—the quality of your years and not just the quantity.
Real Talk, Real Results: This isn’t about instant riches or quick fixes. It’s about building a sustainable plan that works for real people. There will be challenges, setbacks, and lessons learned, but that’s part of the process. And I’ll be transparent with my results, offering regular insights.
Inspiration: I’ll share stories of people who have achieved early retirement or extended healthspans, alongside digestible resources (I’m never far from a podcast…) —proof that this dream is not only possible but happening right now.
The Road Ahead
You don’t have to settle for the traditional retirement path. Together, we can take control of our finances, health, and future. &Prosper is more than just a goal—I want to build a community, a movement, and a new way of thinking about life.
So, are you ready to retire early and live a long, prosperous life? Let’s make it happen—together.
Appreciate you all.
Jamie
NOTE: I am not a financial advisor, planner or have any formal healthcare education. &Prosper is simply a way for me to share my own journey and offer resources I have found useful. With this, I am starting from near zero and I hope to show that anyone can significantly improve their health and financial wellbeing.
