A New Chapter for These Letters
Actually, it's a second division of "Letters to My Son… If I Had One."
Dear Son,
These letters started as a way for me to pass along the stuff I wish I’d known earlier—about life, about mindset, about getting through the hard times without losing your soul.
But there’s another side to the story I want to start sharing, too.
I don’t talk about it much, but over the years I’ve picked up a handful of steady, low-stress ways to earn online—nothing fancy, just little things that work. No bosses. No punching clocks. Just one small win at a time.
And if I had a son, I’d want him to know about that part of my life too.
So from time to time, you’ll start seeing a different kind of letter from me—still written by this same old man, but focused on something else entirely.
I’m calling it The GeezerWise Income Experiments.
These won’t be big sales pitches or guru nonsense. They’ll be short, useful insights—things that helped me earn a little more, feel a little steadier, and stay independent.
You’ll know one when you see it.
And don’t worry—these letters to you, the heart-to-heart kind, they’re not going anywhere. I just figured it was time to open up about another chapter of my story.
If I had a son, I’d want him to know that learning to earn—even just a little—can give a man more peace than he ever expects.
And peace, well… that’s been my real goal all along.
Until next time,
Fred
Still writing, still experimenting… still here.
