Someday You Won't Be an MSP - What Will You Do Then, and How Do You Prepare For It?

I purposely avoided the term "Exit Strategy" in the title above. 

Over at the National Society of IT Service Providers, Amy Babinchak and I are putting on a webinar about some of the important things you need to look at before you leave you current position as the owner of an IT consulting business. Whether it's "retirement" or sale, or something else, there will come a day when you will be leading a different life.

As we say: "Retirement is So Twentieth Century."

Open to all IT consultants.

For the self-employed, retirement looks different than for the rest of the workforce. For traditional workers, the road to retirement consists of working, working, working until they stop working. At the same time ,these folks go from pumping money into saving to drawing money out.

For those of us who are self-employed, the transition is quite different. We work, save, and spend all the time. Transitioning to retirement involves shifting this balance that we’ve grown so used to.

But it also involves more than that. In the 2020's, you might not "retire" all, but transition to a different mix of working, consulting, and spending more time on hobbies and family adventures. You might gig a bit, work six months on/six months off, or do whatever makes you happy.

None of that will fall into place by itself. Do you even have a hobby? Do you know where you might travel for a month? Today's post-work, non-retirement can be anything you want. But you still need to prepare. You have to make sure your personal finances are set up properly. You have to know where you want to live out your dream. And you need to craft a new life for yourself - made possible by the work you've done of the last twenty or thirty years.

This is NOT just another "Exit Strategy" seminar. Long-time community leader Amy Babinchak and I will cover the practical side of planning for your traditional post-work life as a self-employed consultant.
