Welcome

Welcome to newsletter -110. This week, I am ramping up for Christmas.

Again, this week I had a little flurry of new subscribers. Welcome and thanks for joining us. If you are reading this and not a subscriber, you might like to think about subscribing? I publish once a week, usually on a Sunday.

You may have noticed that my retirement newsletters have a fairy set format. I use a consistent series of sections and headings, and the sections and headings also work for Christmas.

Planning

As you may have gathered from previous newsletters, I’m a bit of a planner.

I like lists. And Christmas is no exception. I have some lists. I have not done a SWOT analysis of the Christmas holidays — I often think I should — but I have lists. And I have a list of lists!

Health

Well, Christmas is never a great time of year for health — financial or personal.

There are all the winter colds flying around, meeting up with people, and general overindulgence in food and drink. So, here are my top 10 tips for a healthy festive period.
