@cnn: When it comes to money, Jeff Kizer's mindset might best be summed up as … chill. Jeff said he loves both his jobs – one as a math teacher at a private school and one as a tennis coach. And he wants to work into his 70s if possible. For him, he said, happiness isn't tied to having more money. "Money is a resource to do things that make me happy, and I don't do a lot of things," he said. His financial goal is to bump up his retirement savings. Craig Toberman, a certified financial planner who is working with Jeff on his financial situation, said Jeff has "the right mindset. Money is psychological. He's enjoying the journey. That takes a lot of stress off." 📸: Maansi Srivastava/CNN; CNN Photo Illustration/Photograph by Jessica Lauren
