How Would You Like To Retire At 21?
The following is a paid review and is completely my own opinion and not influenced by being paid. If you are interested in having me review your site or product please contact me.
Do You Want To Retire At 21?
I know a few of you may be thinking, ‘but I am already older that 21.’ Thats ok! Because today I will be looking at a website that although is called RetireAt21.com, Michael Dunlop, the founder says:
I hear you cry. Don’t worry, despite the name, the information and advice is more geared towards retiring prior to having a fake hip installed. Even if you retire just a few years earlier due to the advice at retireat21.com it surely has to be worth taking 5 minutes from your day to check it out… doesn’t it?
But What Credibility Does Michael Have?
Well Michael has something in common with many of the most successful business men in the world. He is young, and a college drop-out – getting his business education the old fashion way. On the street!
Starting his entrepreneurial career on Ebay, Michael soon moved onto websites and currently runs many successful websites including, WebDesignDev.com and RetireAt21.com.
An All-In-One Entrepreneurial Website!
While most websites focus on just one area, RetireAt21.com takes it a couple of steps further and has integrated some of the most important tools an entrepreneur needs online – all in one website. These tools include:
- Interviews With Successful Entrepreneurs
- An Active Entrepreneur Forum
- The Rich List – Top 50 Entrepreneurs Under 30
- Frequently Updated Blog
So let’s take a look at each of these and see how you can benefit from what RetireAt21.com has to offer!
Interviews With Successful Entrepreneurs
You know when you visit a website and they have an interview posts and you have no idea what who the person being interview is? Well that’s not what its like here! Michael has somehow managed to get interviews with some of the most successful online entrepreneurs – that I am almost positive you would not only have heard of, but wish you were even just remotely as successful as them. People Like:
An Active Entrepreneur Forum
One of the things that aspiring entrepreneurs really need to focus on is networking! Networking is one of the most important things in business. Finding people you can partner with, learn from and build each other up is what will not only keep you in business but help you turn your project into something big!
The RetireAt21 Forum is a great place for you to meet some of these people! So what makes this forum so special? Well it could be the fact that there are over 2000 members which means that finding people who will compliment your business or website should be quite easy. PLUS they are all there for the same reason that you are – They want to create a successful business or website and want to retire early!
I love getting around people with the same dreams and desire that I have, because it is so inspiring, and keeps me on track. So I strongly suggest you head on over to the forum and register and start networking!
The Rich List
Simply put, this is an inspiring list of the richest 50 entrepreneurs under the age of 30! ‘The Rich List’ ranges from The founder of FaceBook who is worth $700million to the 19 year old founder of Bodis who is already worth $1million!
Frequently Updated Blog
The thing I have found about websites that include blogs is that they are not usually updated all to often, it is just another service they try to provide – but usually fail! However the thing that Michael has done that as a blogger like, is that he spends a lot of time on the blog section of the website . The way that he does this is by having multiple authors for the blog. The added benefit of this is that the expertise areas is also increased! Check out just a few of the great posts on the blog:

Advertising Opportunities
If you have a product or website that is targetted towards entrepreneurs then this seems like a great place to find them and there are many great ways to advertise! But first lets check out the websites stats:
- It’s a PageRank 3
- Alexa Rating Of 77,525!
- 500+ RSS Subscribers
And Here is what a few advertisers have said:
“Wow, when I signed up for advertising on Retire at 21, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect, not only do I get a good amount of traffic but Michael has personaly guided me on how to get the most out of advertising on Retire at 21!
I would recommend advertising on Retire at 21 to anyone who wants to promote a new website or a already estimblished website wanting to boost traffic and sales!” – UniversalClients.com
“I have been promoting my Reverse Funnel System on all of Michaels websites for a few months now and I’m still collecting affiliate commissions! I can’t begin to tell you how impressed I am with the amount of quality traffic I receive on a daily basis. I advertise on a lot of different websites and I can honestly tell you that my ads with Michael out-perform all of my other ads. If you have the opportunity to advertise on one of Michaels websites take it!” – ReverseFunnelSystem.com
Nothing like raving reviews!
I must say that Michael has done an amazing job with his advertising page. It is well laid out and gives you all the information you need to make an informed decision. AND, when you are ready to purchase and add you can do it through paypal right there and then.
So why not head on over and check out his advertising offers and if it’s what you are looking for, then grab yourself one of the spots – I’m sure you won’t be dissapointed.

OK so you can retire at 21 anymore, can’t you? By the way, you are pretty quiet here as of late. Must busy, busy and busy, huh?

Funny how things change. If you brought up the topic of retiring at 21, 20 years ago, people might have hit you on the head with a stick.
Yan – no i cant, but i can try for 30 :P And I was away for a week then sick the week after, but I’m back in business and december is in the planning and will be SOB’s most exciting month ever!
Proxy – haha true. But with gen x and y we are seeing a shift in thinking and young people today are very entrepreneurial.
Retiring at 21, not possible for me because I´m 33, but becoming financially independent at 36 is my realistic goal.Let´s see how that goes.

Retire at 21 is what inspired me to stop being lazy and actually start blogging and coming up with business ideas. Very disappointing that I just turned 22 a few days ago… just kidding, retiring at 25 would still be ideal.
