FREE BOOK + AUDIO EDITION

"I have enough money to last me the rest of my life… provided I die by the weekend."

Funny, until it hits a little close to home.

If you’re over 55 and wondering what comes next, this free book is a practical look at turning what you already know into income, freedom, and a life that fits.

At 63, I’ve asked those same questions. So I wrote So... What Am I Supposed to Do Now? to share what I’ve learned, including a few things I wish I’d understood sooner.

Get the complete book and the full audio edition, free. No jargon. No workbook. Nobody needs more homework at our age.

What’s inside the book

This isn't a pep talk and it isn't a sales pitch. It's the honest conversation I'd have with you on the porch if you asked me, "Topper, where do I even begin?"

You won't find a photo of me leaning on a Lamborghini. I don't have one, and I'm not convinced I could get back out of one.

What you will find is a patient, practical look at how to start disconnecting your time from your dollars, built from what you already know. Not freedom from doing anything. Freedom to choose what you're doing.

Hi, I'm Topper. I'm 63, and I'm still figuring it out too.

I've been married to my sweetheart Deb for over 41 years. We raised two wonderful kids, and now we get to enjoy the grandkids. I've performed magic for more than 50 years, built businesses, and worked for a company I love for over two decades.

I'm not a guru or a tech genius. I lost over 260 pounds, and it took me about 15 years, one decision and one day at a time. That taught me most real change happens the same way: small steps, stacked patiently.

I wrote this book for anyone who feels behind, overlooked, or a little intimidated by all the online noise. You don't have to become someone else to build something real.

If you still have dreams, you still have time.

Pull up a chair. Let's figure out what's next together.
