I’m going to show you how to retire early (or with more) as an educator. Because today, you’re wondering… “How much longer do I have to do this?” Most teachers, principals, and administrators believe they have to wait. Wait until they hit the “magic number.” Wait until their pension is fully vested. Wait until some distant future where retirement might be an option. And districts? They don’t make it easy. Districts may split The rules keep changing - early retirement stipends may or may not be there The paperwork is a nightmare. And even the so-called “retirement counselors” don’t have clear answers. For 27 years, I stood where you are. I watched colleagues assume they had to work another decade—because that’s what the system told them. But one day, I uncovered something. A legal, ethical strategy that allows educators to “buy years” from their pension, optimize their 401(k) and HSA…to ultimately accelerate their retirement timeline or just retire with more. So I used it. And the result? I retired early by buying years of pension service from the URS. On my terms. With full financial security. Let me introduce you to the EducatorExit™.
