Welcome to Your Next Chapter
Still Building.
You didn't retire to do nothing. You retired to do something that matters. Retirepreneur is your guide to turning decades of experience into profitable consulting, coaching, or course businesses—without risking your retirement security.
What is Retirepreneur?
Retirepreneur is a platform designed specifically for professionals aged 55+ who want to create meaningful, financially rewarding second acts. We believe retirement isn't the end—it's the beginning of your most fulfilling chapter.
Here's the Truth
Your experience is your unfair advantage. While others are still learning the lessons, you've already lived them. You have decades of expertise, credibility, and wisdom that the market desperately needs.
We help you package that expertise into low-overhead businesses that give you flexibility, purpose, and income—on your terms.
Three Proven Paths to Your Second Act
We focus on three business models that leverage your existing expertise—no need to learn entirely new skills or invest huge amounts of capital.
1. Consulting
- Package your expertise into consulting offers
- Learn pricing strategies that reflect your value
- Find and close your first clients
- Build a practice that fits your lifestyle
2. Coaching
- Create one-on-one or group coaching programs
- Leverage your professional experience
- Help others while earning sustainable income
- Scale without sacrificing personal time
3. Course Creation
- Build online courses that teach what you know
- Create newsletters and membership communities
- Develop digital products that generate income
- Create leverage beyond trading time for money
What unites these paths? They're all low-overhead, flexible, and built on what you already know.

I'm not a guru or a marketer. I'm a 63-year-old CPA and former CFO who retired in June 2023—and then got restless. Like you, I didn't want to sit in a rocking chair. I wanted purpose, income, and freedom.
So I went back to school at age 61, earned my Master's in Entrepreneurship from the University of Florida (graduating December 2025), lost significant weight, started learning guitar, and built Retirepreneur from scratch.
I'm living proof that your second act can be your best act. I'm not selling you a dream—I'm sharing what I'm actually doing, in real time, with all the wins and stumbles along the way.
"I was terrified of finding myself on my deathbed with too many regrets. Now I'm helping others stop rehearsing regrets and start living them out."
— Curt Roese, Founder & Retired CFO
