Roy & Karen: To Retirement and Beyond

Entertaining & informative videos about the life and journeys of Roy & Karen Cooper.

We met on Prodigy [online] in 1991, met in person in 1992, started dating in 1993, got married in 1995, got divorced in 2012 and we were re-married in 2016.  Our story is inspirational and a testimony to God and how he transforms people. 

This channel is also about making dreams happen. As a Los Angeles couple keeping up with the Joneses, we were in debt and had no money set aside for retirement.  Then we took Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University class - and followed it with "Gazelle Intensity" - from becoming debt free all the way to now being mortgage free too.  Now we are working on building our nest egg.

With the crazy real estate market in the Austin, Texas area we were able to cash out and buy our new home in The Villages, Florida.  Though we are still working, we are working our way to retirement.  

In early 2023 we bought an RV [2020 BT Cruiser 5240] to help us with our wanderlust.
