I’m not sure why I write this blog, except that I’ve discovered that I really like writing and look forward to putting my thoughts down every day.

One thing that I’m definitely unsure of is why you read this blog.

Are you looking for tips on traveling for free?

Are you interested in early retirement and saving money?

Are you as obsessed with value as I am?

Maybe you like the idea of pursuing happiness above all else?

Whatever your reason, thank you. It means an awful lot to me.

But tonight I’d like to share with you a shockingly beautiful piece of writing that I just finished.

It is by an old man, Roger Angel, the former sports writer for the New Yorker.

And it’s about getting old.

I realize this subject is not exactly in the wheelhouse for a travel hacking/early retirement blog. But it struck a deep chord with me which means that it’s right for my blog.

And there are some obvious areas of overlap.

So please read this, (and we’ll talk again tomorrow.)

This Old Man

I’d love to hear your comments about the article good or bad, and your age if you’re willing to divulge it.  (I’m 40.)
