I have retired many times. I closed my law firm, retired, but went to dog grooming school. I hated people too much to continue in law. Closed the grooming salon when my partner died. Retired to rural Nevada desert. Recruited by an Iranian law firm in London to iron out a few problems in Los Angeles. Retired from that to engage in an art hobby and reengaging my long dormant writing activities. Now I have an art agent, obligations for paintings here and there AND publishers curious about my novel. They will NEVER publish my unwoke work. My retirement has somehow slipped right through my fingers.I started and ran a successful business for 20 years. All you need is to identify a gap in the market (or a niche that is underserved) and have the ability and motivation to bring it to fruition.
I started with $1500, and grew the business into one generating 7 figures in revenues, and employed five people.
