I would advise someone to "invest in yourself." Get an education, or training in useful skills. I don't mean a formal education or a racket like that, either. Find a new potential field of work even if you're gainfully employed, and learn as much about the new field while you can.
Pay off your debts so you're not a "slave" to them.
Be passionate about what you do.
Don't lose sleep or worry about things outside your control.
Cancel your cable or satellite television and live your life as a free man.
Adopt my tagline, too.

Good post, and trying to do all those things in a decrepit, really tired kind of way. Still, moving forward is moving forward.

I am in my early 50’s. House is paid off several years ago. No debt at all. The 401K has no provision for collapse. Best is money market, but that could be wiped out by inflation or govt seisure of retirement accounts. I have some IRA and Roth funds that could be moved into gold or real estate investments. I could quit my job so I can get control of my 401K. I think I could retire easily.

Cancel your cable or satellite television and live your life as a free man. They should, but they won't. They are addicted. There is always some 'excuse'.
