Health Versus Wealth With Dr Ben

Simon Phipps, 57, lives near Long Eaton, between Nottingham & Derby, is married (Jayne) with 2 children (aged 26 & 22), and has for the past nearly 40 years been a top, self-taught programmer and video game designer in an industry that’s bigger than the film business – the electronics manufacturing sector has an estimated worth of £90 billion. The annual Consumer Electronics Show (CES), held in Las Vegas, is one of the world’s biggest and Simon has attended it and presented at it many times. He started his career in his 20s routinely “working 7 days a week, starting at 8am, finishing at 1am”. Now taking retirement 10 years early, he espouses the “retire well” concept, having made significant lifestyle adjustments. He’s a man who’s prioritised his Health over his Wealth and advises listeners: “Don’t overlook the hidden benefits of taking early retirement!”
