Tip #147: Save a Buck, Go on Vacation

Monday, June 21, 2010 @ 11:06 AM

Oy, Gevalt! The heat we’ve been having! Retirement Yenta loves warm weather, but the global warming we’re having can make a hot flash seem even hotter. I’m shvitzing here. This reminds your dear Yenta of a groys shmir (big deal) she thought she would pass along to you, her dear Readers. Go on vacation in June–the prices, how cheap they are. Retirement Yenta says: With the weather changing and heating up, go on vacation early and save a buck.

Tip: #143: Start Writing a Journal

Thursday, June 3, 2010 @ 10:06 AM

Retirement Yenta loves her life. She loves writing. She also loves writing about her life. She knows that exploring one’s past helps one make better choices in the future. So, with this in mind, your dear Yenta wants to recommend keeping a journal. This little Yenta loves nothing more than to sit back (on a rainy day, or Monday when she’s down) and read what she was doing one, two, or even 10 years ago! It gives her perspective on her past, and makes her feel more positive about her future. Besides, when this little Yenta gets asked to make a movie about her life, someone has to come up with the details. It can’t all be fiction!

Tip #134: Live for Today

Friday, April 23, 2010 @ 11:04 AM

Retirement Yenta knows there are only two true guarantees in life: 1. Taxes and 2. Death. We have two choices on taxes–pay ‘em or go to jail. This little Yenta dislikes the tax man, but she knows he cometh and tries to always be prepared with deduction after deduction. Now, as for the whole death thing…there’s nothing you can do but have a little fun while you are in the waiting room (aka: life). SO HAVE FUN ALREADY. Pick a vanity project and run with it, or go and do something that just makes you smile. Retirement Yenta would like to remind you of Tip #98: Share a Cab with a Stranger. This little pleasure made your dear Yenta smile for days and days. We all know that some day (hopefully long into the future) the grim reaper will arrive and to this your dear Yenta says: “Why wait to enjoy your life? You may retire to the sky before tomorrow!”

Tip #87: Join Facebook

Thursday, January 7, 2010 @ 01:01 PM

Retirement Yenta is a social butterfly. She loves to keep in touch and get caught up. She has found that the social media trend has swept her away. Your dear Yenta loves Facebook and Twitter, not to mention LinkedIn. She believes these sites are where it’s at. This Yenta has connected with friends from high school (in the wilds of CT), and found her former babysitter (NOOOOOO, not the babysitter of her children, but her own babysitter, who took care of her when she was a wee little Yenta). Once you try it, Retirement Yenta knows you will like it. All the cool Yentas do it…so should you.

Tip #86: Start a Cawfee Tawk

Tuesday, January 5, 2010 @ 09:01 AM

Retirement Yenta likes to have people around. She likes to talk about lots of different things. In order to keep the conversation crisp and spicy, she has started “Cawfee Tawks.” She invites a group of people over to her house, or out to a coffee shop to discuss a variety of topics. Your dear Yenta recommends that you change the invitees, the locations, and the topics on a regular basis. Some of her recent Cawfee Tawks topics have included business, the Talmud, sex, and movies. Retirement Yenta says: Tawk amongst yaselves…I’ll give you a topic…

Tip #79: Buy Big (and Yes, Size Matters)

Wednesday, December 23, 2009 @ 12:12 PM

One knows that as one ages, the eyes start to go. So, Retirement Yenta has decided to beat nature at it’s own game. She has gone and bought herself two big screen TV’s, one for her living room and one for the bedroom. Retirement Yenta especially loves having a big TV in the bedroom (for obvious reasons). Now, when mother nature tries to laugh at your dear Yenta for not being able to see the way she once could, the Yenta can laugh back saying she sees just fine (as long as it is on at least a 42″ screen). Your dear Yenta also says, “Size matters, so, buy big, and buy now!”

Tip 12: Buy TV Series and Movies in Advance
