Episode Synopsis
In 1986, the Pet Shop Boys sang, “I’ve got the brains, you’ve got the looks — let’s make lots of money.”Decades later, that line feels less like pop irony and more like a wake-up call for GenX professionals staring down a shifting economy.In this episode, Ann Marie breaks down what it really takes to build financial security and meaning in midlife — beyond the corporate ladder.You’ll hear:The real retirement number no one talks about — and why the old plan no longer worksHow AI, layoffs, and burnout are rewriting the rules of stabilityThe three new opportunities for GenX professionals: Fractional work, Coaching & Advisory, and Passion ProjectsIt’s about building a life where money supports meaning — not the other way around.
