"Europe, here I come! First, I'm going to visit cousins I've never seen outside
of London. Then I'll just travel about. All my life I've been wanting to go to
Europe, and at last I have the time-and the money to do it. How can I afford to
spend savings for this trip? You see, I have a lifetime income-a check for $300
a month as long as I live.
"Come to think of it, a young English cousin was indirectly responsible for my
being retired now. Back in 1940, during the Battle of Britain, we took Paul to
live with us. He was ten. He often talked about his home the village my family
came from. The more I listened, the more I wanted to go to England after the
war.
"I had a good job at the time, with· a promising future. But when I actually
got down to considering going to Europe, I realized I'd never be able to take
off more than two weeks at a time unless I could retire someday. Yet retiring
seemed impossible. I had never been able to save much. I was nearly forty.
"But, one day, while I was waiting at the barber's for Paul and my boys, I
happened to be glancing through a magazine and noticed an ad about a way to
retire. It was called the Phoenix Mutual Retirement Income Plan. It said if I
started young enough - in my forties or sooner-this plan could provide an income
of $10 to $300 a month for life. I sent for the booklet that very morning.
"In a few days the booklet arrived in the mail. My dreams suddenly became
possibilities. This plan was made specifically for someone like me. Why I'd even
be able to retire earlier than I had ever expected.
"Of course, I compared Phoenix Mutual to other retirement methods. But the more
I compared, the more clearly I saw it was best for me. Just as soon as I could,
I applied and qualified for my Phoenix Mutual Retirement Income Plan.
"To think I'm actually on my way to see Paul! It's hard to believe he's grown up
now, and married. My next check for $300 is waiting for me in London. I've never
felt so carefree
in my life. And I'm still young, with years to look forward to."
