About

Tired of living to work, wife and I retired early to hike, bike, volunteer and live in exotic places. We're now living our dream - for the moment in Central America - as we spend our days in the isthmus mountains and our evenings with our hobby.

His mother cautions him that if he keeps on whining and crying, he’ll have to go live with the Whimper-Whineys. One night Peter hops into the dark forest.<span>  </span>He meets some Whimper-Whineymen and discovers that not only do the Whimper-Whineys whine all the time, but they are very ill-mannered and rude. He discovers that everything is sour in Whimper-Whineyland and decides his mother was right! If only he can get back home… a recent critique, “Though there are other books out there for children about whining, I cannot imagine any parent or guardian not wanting to read this book to their child!... <span> </span>Parents everywhere applaud you!” </span></span>

Story Behind The Book

When wife and I retired early (at 45) and moved to an exotic country, we surprisingly met many who had done the same or who were in the middle of a lifelong goal. Some had taken ten years out of their life to sail the world, others had gone on a continent or even worldwide hiking/biking/motorcycling trip, and although their trip stories were fantastic, I was particularly interested on how they could pull it off. Surprisingly, many were in the same situation I was in - taking advantage of what we had to live our dreams. Others had found ways to live on little or next to nothing and were traveling the world on a $7 per day budget successfully, and more importantly, happily. I thought, 'Hey, this would make a great book!' so I wrote it. Unlike many 'How to' financial success books out there, mine is primarily based on real experiences from regular Joes, just like me.
