The first order of business is to get the heck out of California! Did I just say that? Yes, I did. If you are still in California and you are retiring soon, find your Heaven and make plans. You’re not gettin’ any younger. Sorry, I seem to be on a roll today.
Let me be a little clearer. The first order of business is to move from some place that no longer meets your needs. And the second order of business is to figure out exactly where you want to move to.
