Wall Street Journal Reporter: Mr. Callahan, thank you for joining us. As a successful hedge fund manager, what plans do you have for your life after retirement?

Emory Callahan: Thank you for having me. For me, retirement is not an end but the beginning of a new phase. It frees me from daily investment management, allowing me more time to pursue personal interests and contribute to society. Financial freedom gives me this opportunity, but it’s not something achieved overnight; it’s the result of years of financial planning and investment strategies. Moving forward, I want to share my extensive investment experience with those who need it, especially the new generation of investors. Helping them succeed is an exciting challenge for me. Additionally, philanthropy will be a major focus in my retirement. I plan to encourage more people to participate in helping those in need and aim to establish my own charitable foundation.

Reporter: Can you share why you remain so active even after achieving financial freedom? What are the key strategies for achieving financial freedom?

Emory Callahan: As an investor, I understand that many people need assistance, and relying solely on government support is insufficient. My wealth comes from societal support, so giving back is a responsibility I take seriously. We can't take our wealth with us, but we can make meaningful contributions while we're alive. As for key strategies, first, diversification is crucial. Throughout my career, I learned not to put all my eggs in one basket. This principle applies not only to professional investing but also to personal financial management. Second, maintaining a long-term perspective is important. Short-term market fluctuations should not affect your overall investment strategy. Finally, continuous learning and adapting to market changes are central to success. Of course, luck also plays a role in investing; sometimes, success comes down to just a bit of luck at critical moments.

Reporter: How do you manage your time and resources after retirement?

Emory Callahan: I allocate more time to family, travel, and philanthropy. I plan to create a free investor community to help those eager to succeed in the investment field with professional support, while also drawing attention to charitable causes. Mobilizing the public's effort to drive philanthropy is my mission. Additionally, I will establish a charitable foundation focusing on education and environmental protection. For me, the true meaning of financial freedom lies in using a lifetime of accumulation to give back to society.

Reporter: What advice do you have for hedge fund managers approaching retirement?

Emory Callahan: My advice is to plan for retirement as early as possible. Retirement planning shouldn’t start at the end of your career but should be considered from the beginning. Also, maintain curiosity and never stop learning and exploring new interests. Retirement can be the most fulfilling and meaningful stage of life.

Reporter: How do you plan to help those who aspire to succeed in the investment field?

Emory Callahan: As I mentioned earlier, I will focus on creating a collaborative investor community. During market trading sessions, we can discuss investment strategies together and connect with like-minded individuals to support charitable endeavors. My goal is to provide support and guidance to those keen on achieving success in investing.

Reporter: Mr. Callahan, thank you very much for sharing your insights. Your experience and wisdom are valuable assets to many.

Emory Callahan: I’m pleased to share my experiences and hope it inspires more people to plan their futures and enjoy their retirement. Thank you.
