Episode 112

Computers & Technology are Where It's At!

Published on: 31st January, 2021

Dan Schaeffer has been around the internet for a lot of years...he just turned 74 shortly after this episode was recorded, and he's firmly entrenched in the world of internet marketing.

Now living in norther British Columbia, Canada, he has travelled through many countries and has done his fair share of selling stuff. He figures he's pretty good at it and he must be right on the cusp of having his internet marketing efforts take off.

But he's quick to say that it's not an easy place to make your mark. It takes some effort, and you have to be willing to learn some new things along the way... but since the world is moving forward, we need to jump on and get with it, or we're going to get left behind.

His advice is to start planning for your retirement well before it's upon you... start doing the things you enjoy and get better at them. It's always possible to turn hobbies into income streams, if you put a little bit of time and effort into them.

He's got a website/blog devoted to healthy living with diabetes, because his wife has the disease. You can find out more about him and NewsToLose.com

Dan's willing to chat with anyone and always ready to lend a hand in getting someone started in their online business. He's just a phone call away and lots of fun to talk to! He can be reached at 250-650-1845.

About the Podcast

Beyond Retirement
What really happens after retirement?

If you’re approaching retirement—or already there—and wondering what now?, you’re not alone. The world is full of financial advice for retirement, but there’s far less about how to actually live a fulfilling life once the 9-to-5 ends.

Beyond Retirement is the podcast that explores what comes after the career chapter. Whether your retirement was planned or unexpected, joyful or jarring, you’ll find real stories, honest conversations, and practical inspiration here.

Join host Jacquie Doucette as she shares her own journey and speaks with people who’ve reimagined life after work—some fully retired, some shifting gears, and all discovering new meaning in this next stage. From finding purpose to building community, embracing play, and navigating change, we’ll explore how to create a life that truly fits.

Because retirement isn’t the end—it’s a new beginning.

Let’s figure out what comes next, together.
