I know quite a few, fairly successful agents, who function as though they're already retired.

A nice post about him - he seemed to have lived a special life that fit him "just right". That's a good achievement.

I'm the perfect example of that. Retired from the corporate world at the age of 40. Became a real estate broker at the age of 43 and have been going strong for 28 years now.

I know, I am so glad that I found it! I retired from nursing in 1999 (at 40) and am certain that I will still be going strong when I reach 30 years as an agent - 13 more years!
Rest in peace, Reese Grams.

As long as a person (agent) knows what they are doing why not work until you can't. However, lets remember to serve the customer not ourselves...

I decided to retire from real estate during my retirement.
Many continue to work because they fail to provide adequate funding for their retirement years. I recommend making the post retirement work optional rather than necessary.

Reese lived a good long and successful life! And yes I know many agents in my area that have a 2 or 3rd 'career' in real estate and are still involved in either managing or selling real estate. Experience and knowledge is priceless - and they tend to be very wise, calm and know how to handle challenges well.

I did not know Reese Grams, but from reading his bio he was a hell of a guy. R.I.P.

Sounds like Reese had a good life. RIP, sir.
Yes, I do know of another business model that you can do after you retire
