Early Retirement Roadmap

Welcome to Early Retirement Roadmap — a channel for people preparing for early retirement, pursuing financial independence, or learning how to thrive after leaving full-time work.

I’m Mike Upland, and I retired early at 55 in 2024. Here, I share real-world lessons from my own early retirement journey, along with practical strategies to help you build a financially secure and fulfilling post-career life.

You’ll find videos on early retirement planning, retirement income, health insurance before Medicare, Affordable Care Act planning, taxes, Roth conversions, Social Security, withdrawal strategies, market risk, spending, purpose, mindset, and life after work.

Subscribe to join the journey.

Early Retirement Roadmap is also available as a podcast on all major podcast platforms.
