"How To Quit—Without Quitting" gives tips on setting up a consulting practice.
Frankly I think the article is a typical thinly-veiled Boomer plea to keep paying those payroll taxes to save Social Security & Medicare. It's written on deadline by journalists who wouldn't have a clue about ER if it bit them in their @$$ets. And it's only accessible for now if you're a BW subscriber. But then I shouldn't expect to find lyrical retirement paeans in a magazine with "Business" in its title.
Anyway here's Bob's quote on how to back off from full-time workweeks to a part-time consulting career: "Whatever you do, don't look like you're retired. 'If you sit down with clients looking tanned and relaxed, it can work against you,' says Bob Clyatt, author of Work Less, Live More: The New Way to Retire Early. ' You don't want to make this look like a hobby, or like you're just puttering around.' Even if that's what you're really doing."
Bob, is BW going to publish more in other articles, or is this all they decided to use after interviewing you?!? How much of your time did they take for this?
