Basics of RetireWiki
RetireWiki is a free site which is a single source where anyone can go to get reliable information relating to retirement. This includes financial information and recommendations, as well as reviews of great places to retire in the U.S. and abroad.
Contributions
Like most "wiki" sites, the content of RetireWiki depends on its community of people throughout the world who contribute content to the site and vigilantly protect the site from vandalism and much lesser offenses like simple typos. Anyone can join, and most everyone has some tidbit of personal experience to share, or at least a hearty recommendation of why their hometown is a great city to retire in. We welcome you with open arms! We encourage all knowledgeable and articulate interested parties to participate in the creation and development of unique, valuable content for other visitors.
Affiliations
RetireWiki is run as a free service. The costs for the site are covered by private investors, low-profile advertising, and sponsorship. Although the site runs a version of MediaWiki software, we are not part of the Wikimedia Foundation, which runs Wikipedia, Wiktionary, etc. We support their cause and many of our pages link out to their sites. The initial costs of the site have been covered, so you can have the confidence that this site (and your contributions to it) will survive for quite a while even if alone are not enough to sustain the site. Feel free to make a donation to help defray ongoing costs.
