I was surprised to find a "save for retirement" thread in both this story and the previous one in the series.  Key paragraph here: "He credits his freedom to pursue a life-long ambition – at a stage in life when others would be retired – to decisions he took decades ago to build a nest egg on more than a teacher’s pension." 

Big lessons in the first of the series, too: (1) debt isn't all bad, if it's used to enlarge the nest-egg.  (2) Retirement doesn't mean a date with the rocking chair.  It can mean a new vocation--and more earnings!

The headline might have been more in keeping with the piece if it had been worded, "Find Your Joy--save for the road..."
