You work your whole life to get to retirement, and you want to be able to enjoy it. A growing number of people are choosing to retire earlier than ever before so they can do just that. Of course, you will need to be able to afford the transition. Luckily, there are plenty of creative ways to found an early retirement without drastically changing your lifestyle. 

1. Invest in Real Estate

There are plenty of ways to get started in real estate. Many people choose to purchase rental properties. Some great investment properties can be found if you are willing to locate and buy off market property. If you aren’t quite ready to jump into a house purchase, you can still make pretty good money by renting out your spare bedrooms on a home-sharing platform like Airbnb. 

2. Set Up a Blog

An increasing number of people turn to the internet for information and connections with others. Capitalize on that by setting up a blog. Once you are generating traffic to your site, you can set up relationships with affiliate marketing companies to monetize it. Pay per click ads are another way to generate revenue from a website. While there are millions of blogs out there, only a small portion of them are profitable. You will have to work to set yourself up as an authority in your chosen subject. 

3. Make Retirement a Vacation

More and more people are choosing to retire abroad. This is evident in the growing ex-pat communities in many countries around the globe. The simple fact of the matter is that your retirement dollars will go a lot further in other countries than they will in the at home. That means you will need less in savings to maintain the lifestyle you are used to. On the other hand, you may choose to embrace a completely different lifestyle in your adopted homeland.
