Twice in my life, I've attempted to retire, and both times, I've been tempted back into full-time work. Both my husband and I had done very well in our jobs, so I was fortunate enough to be able to retire early. By the age of 40, I'd worked my way to the top as a financial planner.

We were at a car show and spotted a compact, camper van from the '90s that was well within our budget. Even so, the costs of upkeep went up as we added more mileage to the camper van. And, after doing some math, we realized we don't need a camper van to do the road trips we dreamed of.

My last serious romantic relationship was one of the most important relationships of my life. I was nervous when I told Cooper about my close relationship with Moses. The short relationships I had between Moses and Cooper made me extremely anxious about my friendship with Moses. It's unusual to remain in such close contact with an ex — especially one who wants to get back together — without a new partner feeling some pangs of jealousy. Before meeting me, Cooper was in an emotionally and financially stifling relationship where he felt prohibited from spending time with his friends.

That's why Davis thinks the key is finding one's dream work. "You just need enough money to cover any shortfall between what you want to spend and what your dream work pays," he said.

Ryan Reynolds' storytelling abilities aren't just a quirky element of his public persona — they're the bedrock foundation of his success across multiple industries, he says. The movie's budget didn't leave much room for marketing, so Reynolds shouldered some of the load himself, filming and posting comedic advertisements on social media. Multiple of Reynolds' posts went viral, and "Deadpool" grossed $782.6 million in box office sales against a $58 million budget, according to IMDB-owned Box Office Mojo. Mint Mobile's parent company, Ka'ena Corporation, was similarly purchased for up to $1.35 billion by T-Mobile last year. "Reynolds will continue in his creative role on behalf of Mint," T-Mobile said at the time.
