digital nomads redefine retirement with T-Mobile

New research shows that a thank you text message could be an act of gratitude that’s as effective and impactful as anything — so put your device to work this holiday season!

tmobile-blocks/subhead

The season of giving — and giving thanks — is upon us. We all have that running list in our head of people to thank, but if we’re being honest, year to year we often come up short. And to nod to that age-old axiom, our best intentions could pave a road classic rock stalwarts AC/DC could wrap <a href="https://youtu.be/l482T0yNkeo">a devilish chorus</a> around.

core/paragraph

But what was holding us back from putting our best foot forward when it comes to saying thanks in a meaningful way may have all along simply been procedural.

Look, we’re not knocking that great <a href="https://emilypost.com/shop/books/emily-posts-etiquette-18th-edition">Emily of etiquette</a> and her penchant for sending a post, but when it comes to a simple show of gratitude there’s no need for lack of a stamp and envelope to get in your way.

An impactful thank you, it seems, can be as easy as something almost all of us do several times a day — sending a text.

New research <a href="https://greatergood.berkeley.edu/article/item/what_is_the_best_way_to_deliver_a_thank_you">shows</a> that expressing gratitude via text message is nearly as impactful as a face-to-face thank you. Moreover, sending a text might be an even more effective message method for expressing your appreciation when you feel embarrassed or awkward about thanking someone in person. Not to mention, sending that simple text, research <a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/17439760.2021.1913639">also shows</a>, can help us feel more connected and boost feelings of well-being, thereby making people feel less lonely — truly positive news after the last two years of so many of us being separated and feeling so apart.

And recent data from T-Mobile suggests many of us may already be in on this act of device kindness. Year over year, from Thanksgiving 2019 to Thanksgiving 2020, texting was up 21%. Additionally, as more people turn to texts for the holidays, T-Mobile also found a 20% increase in texting at Christmas and a 5% bump at New Year’s, which is still impressive given how popular texting has been on New Year’s historically. And expectations are that those numbers will only increase this year.

So don’t let pen and paper stand in your way of making someone else — and yourself! — feel appreciated. Your best recipe for holiday success could simply be to send a “thank you” text.

As we mentioned in <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/network/a-holiday-psa-pick-up-the-phone">“A Holiday PSA: Pick Up the Phone”</a> last year, if you’re a tried and true old-school type who prefers something more tactile than text, you can still use your smartphone to send season’s greetings and gratitude with a handwritten note via services like <a href="https://www.handwrytten.com/">Handwrytten</a> and <a href="https://www.postable.com/">Postable</a>. Simply type in your message and the receiver’s address, and the apps will generate a handwritten letter or holiday card and take care of the mailing for you.

5G unleashes your network to give you more, and new data shows T-Mobile’s Magenta MAX plan is helping people make use of it all — with thousands more minutes of video streamed and social media posts made! Check out what more you can do with Magenta MAX.

Making every minute count. After more than a year of learning what staying apart feels like, we certainly have come to appreciate every minute we have together. Talking, sharing and connecting with our loved ones is a gift we’ll never again take for granted. (We promise, Nana!)

It’s no surprise that just six months after T-Mobile launched <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans">Magenta MAX</a> — a plan that can’t slow you down based on how much smartphone data you use — it quickly became the Un-carrier’s most popular plan.

tmobile-blocks/pull-quote-image

And why is it so popular? Well, before Magenta MAX, smartphone plans were built for lower capacity 4G LTE networks — because 4G LTE was the best any wireless provider could do. But now we’re in the 5G era and T-Mobile introduced Magenta MAX, the first plan to be built specifically for what T-Mobile’s 5G can do thanks to its industry-leading coverage with Extended Range 5G and even faster speeds with Ultra Capacity 5G. It challenges the limits imposed by older technologies, and customers are loving the freedom and the benefits!

And they are great benefits. We’re talking things like Netflix (on us!), 40GB of high-speed hotspot data, activating up to 4K UH streaming, unlimited Gogo in-flight Wi-Fi and texting — as well as Scam Shield Premium protection.

Today over 50% of Magenta MAX customers use a <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/devices/5g-phones" data-type="URL">5G smartphone</a>, and they are streaming 39% more video, using 36% more data for social media (that's 14 more posts a day!), and their mobile hotspot data usage is double that of other T-Mobile customers.

core/group

To put this in more tangible numbers, customers with <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans" data-type="URL" data-id="https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans">Magenta MAX</a> on average have each watched the equivalent 2,100 more minutes of video and made 2,600 more posts on social media! That’s what happens when you give customers a powerful 5G network and a plan built for 5G.

In other words, Magenta MAX is perfect for any new 5G smartphone upgrade you may be thinking of making.

“These new usage numbers make so much sense,” says Mobile Expert and 10-year T-Mobile veteran Chalice Williams, who sees customers day in and day out at her Houston store — and has a finger on the pulse of what they’re looking for. “Lately we’ve had more people actually come in and ask for the Magenta MAX plan rather than us having to inform them of all the reasons it’s packed with such great benefits for our customers.”

So, almost ready to MAX out? Here are just a few ways that Magenta MAX can supercharge your daily activities with a little extra 5G support!

core/heading

Tis the season of innovation, and if you’ve been looking at your phone thinking that it might work better as a paperweight — it might just be time for that device upgrade. Luckily, there are lots of great new 5G devices on the market these days, and a 5G-enabled smartphone is the way to go. That’s important because with T-Mobile’s <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/network/umlaut-pcmag-wins">industry-leading 5G network</a> — America’s largest, fastest and most reliable — these devices can reach their full potential. With plans like Magenta MAX, your new 5G smartphone will be operating on a network that is optimized for its unique capabilities. Work smarter, not harder, by pairing your device with a plan like Magenta MAX.

And with the launch of the latest iPhone, T-Mobile is sweetening the deal! Right now, you can get an iPhone 13 free with eligible trade-in on Magenta MAX and with <a href="https://bit.ly/upgradeforever" data-type="URL" data-id="https://bit.ly/upgradeforever">T‑Mobile’s Forever Upgrade</a> get up to $800 off your next iPhone every two years ... forever.

We’ve all been there — you’re at a coffee shop, bus stop or your favorite park trying to get service with less-than-ideal public Wi-Fi. In moments like these, having <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/iot-devices/hotspots" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">a dependable hotspot</a> is essential. With Magenta MAX, you’ll have one of the most generous hotspot plans — 40GB of high-speed hotspot data! And that means plenty of high-speed Internet on the go. No more struggle scrolling and slow loading on your connected device, your hotspot means easy connection at any time!

Got some time to kill and want to catch up with your favorite streaming addiction? Long bus ride home or stuck waiting in line? Magenta MAX’s streaming benefits let you watch from anywhere and are here to add more entertainment to your day with Netflix on Us and the ability to stream up to 4K video included.

We told you already how to avoid the <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/un-carrier/how-to-avoid-summer-scams">“Summer of Scam”</a> thanks to the unprecedented benefits you get from the Un-Carrier’s scam protections — and that doesn’t change with the seasons. T-Mobile’s Scam Shield Premium allows you to fine-tune your call control. That means that not only can you block all calls identified as scam from reaching you, you can even manage robocalls by type and send all those telemarketers straight to voicemail! With Scam Shield Premium — included in Magenta MAX — you don’t have to be interrupted by telemarketers, political surveys or other unwanted robocalls again!

As far as entertainment goes, watching paint dry and sitting on a long flight with no connection can feel like pretty similar activities. While we can’t do anything about the crying kids, your middle seat or that guy who snagged the last baggage spot in the overhead, we’ve got a great fix for your connection issue. One of the many benefits of Magenta MAX is unlimited <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/offers/gogo-inflight">Gogo in-flight Wifi</a> and texting, a way to stay connected while you fly. You might be off the ground, but now you don<meta charset="utf-8">’t have to be out of the loop during those long flights.

With all those thousands of extra posts to social media, it’s time to make sure that selfie game of yours is strong! Good lighting, camera position and a few tricks for editing your photos in real-time can work wonders. Check out the video below to learn from a few more of T-Mobile’s in-store Mobile Experts on how to use your phone — yes, even that brand new 5G device — to take the perfect selfies for all your social platforms!

As T-Mobile amps up its industry-leading phone scam protections this summer, we offer ways you can use your mobile device to avoid the most common summer pitfalls that scam you out of the best season!

Ahhh, summertime! You’ve got old school <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kr0tTbTbmVA" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Fresh Prince & DJ Jazzy Jeff</a> blasting in the background, the top down on your car, with nothing but a cold brew coffee in hand and plans to lounge on the beach all day.

Or wait … is that cinematic summer scene all a scam? The humidity, the mosquitos, that sunburn!

Let’s face it, things can go sideways in the summer, but one thing that shouldn’t be scaring you this season is scam calls. Unfortunately, scam calls are <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/network/stir-shaken-all-networks" data-type="URL" data-id="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/network/stir-shaken-all-networks">returning to pre-pandemic levels</a>. In fact, in a recent study, T-Mobile found that more than one out of five consumers would rather be confronted with an empty toilet paper roll than get a scam call! And as for those robocalls, when asked to rank a list of grievances, the most common answer to be ranked the absolute worst by customers, was just that. In fact, 30 percent of consumers would rather get caught in the rain without an umbrella than get a robocall — and you know how intense summertime showers can be!

Yep. Scam calls are, literally, the worst.

It’s for this reason that last summer T-Mobile launched <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/customers/scam-shield" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Scam Shield</a>, a comprehensive and state-of-the-art set of tools to protect customers against scams and unwanted robocalls. With Scam Shield, T-Mobile and Metro by T-Mobile customers get automatic and free scam call warnings, the ability to block scam calls completely with Scam Block, and free Caller ID.

In an effort to continue to work together for the greater good of a spectacular summer, here are some tips on how to use your device and enjoy the many benefits of T-Mobile’s <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans" data-type="URL" data-id="https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans">Magenta and Magenta MAX plans</a> to make the most of season and skip the pitfalls. Just like our commitment to warding off scammers, we are here to show you how to use your device to repel pests, protect yourself from getting burned (in all the ways) and avoid the threat of returning crowds. All that sweat — eek!

Nothing like enjoying a sunset meal in the warm breeze … until you become the main entree for the bugs that have joined your dinner party! Good thing there’s an app to fix that. Yes, there are actually apps that <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRhyCjJ7IMk" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">can repel mosquitos</a>. Like <a href="https://apps.apple.com/us/app/anti-mosquito-repellent-sound/id1242188677">one from Reticode</a> that emits low-frequency sounds to ward off those flying monsters as well as offer helpful tips and tricks to avoid becoming their dinner. Annoying the bugs before they can bother you? Now that’s thinking ahead.

Now that major amusement parks like <a href="https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2021-04-13/disneyland-california-theme-parks-reopening" data-type="URL" data-id="https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2021-04-13/disneyland-california-theme-parks-reopening" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Disneyland are reopened</a>, you’ll want to try to avoid those awful crowds and long lines again. Many theme parks have <a href="https://www.kansascity.com/entertainment/article243649457.html">their own app</a> that can help you also plan ahead and <a href="https://www.post-gazette.com/business/tech-news/2021/04/22/apps-help-theme-parks-boost-their-covid-safety-and-collect-data-on-you/stories/202104220096" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">avoid peak hours</a> when the largest crowds are expected. Many Disney theme park goers recommend the <a href="https://touringplans.com/disney-world-app" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Lines app</a>, which offers a subscription service where visitors can check the actual wait times of popular attractions, using real-time data to plan the best time to queue up.

This applies to beaches as well. People have quite literally been itching to hit the beach and fix the quarantine yellowing we’ve all developed. If you want to avoid traveling in the heat to a coastline that’s overrun by crowds, there’s often an app or website to help you track its capacity. In Tampa Bay, for instance, <a href="https://www.wtsp.com/article/news/local/pinellascounty/online-tool-beach-parking-crowds-pinellas-county-sheriff/67-8c24de95-8665-4e4f-99a8-97e1e19aa2fe" data-type="URL" data-id="https://www.wtsp.com/article/news/local/pinellascounty/online-tool-beach-parking-crowds-pinellas-county-sheriff/67-8c24de95-8665-4e4f-99a8-97e1e19aa2fe" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ensuring you’ll have a spot</a> for your beach chair is as simple as checking their county <a href="https://pcsoweb.com/beachcapacity" data-type="URL" data-id="https://pcsoweb.com/beachcapacity">site,</a> and many experts suggest checking the specific county Twitter handles for updates on your preferred beach. And Tripadvisor <a href="https://www.audacy.com/news/new-app-helps-you-social-distance-and-avoid-crowds" data-type="URL" data-id="https://www.audacy.com/news/new-app-helps-you-social-distance-and-avoid-crowds" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">has aggregated crowd data</a> on <a href="https://www.crowdfree.me/about" data-type="URL" data-id="https://www.crowdfree.me/about" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Crowdfree</a>, a platform originally meant to help people social distance when visiting places like beaches and parks, and continues to help emphasize when locations are less crowded.

And remember, T-Mobile <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans" data-type="URL" data-id="https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans">Magenta MAX</a> plans also come with the perfect solo activity built right in — <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/offers/netflix-on-us" data-type="URL" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Netflix on Us</a>!

Have a laugh, and the last word on crowds!

Speaking of the beach, when was the last time your skin felt the warmth of the sun for more than a quick grocery store run? You’ve probably spent a lot more time indoors this past year and change, and you need to be wary of harmful UV rays that can lead to all kinds of problems like cataracts, premature skin aging, sunburn and skin cancer, which is the <a href="http://www.surgeongeneral.gov/library/calls/prevent-skin-cancer/exec-summary.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">most commonly diagnosed cancer</a> in the United States. When you plan your fun in the sun, be sure to check out the <a href="https://dailyburn.com/life/tech/sun-safety-apps-for-uv-index/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">UV index sun safety apps</a> like the Wolfram Sun Exposure Reference App, which predicts how long it would take for you to burn based on your skin type and the SPF you’re wearing in a specific location, and can even help you plan five days ahead, for when the sun’s rays are less dangerous.

Things have changed a lot because of the pandemic, and that includes the service on your local public transportation. Yes, you know <a href="https://www.google.com/maps" data-type="URL" data-id="https://www.google.com/maps" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Google Maps</a> offers navigation but it can even be helpful when searching for any seasonal changes to the buses and trains. Tap on a train or subway station, for example, in the app and you will see information about service modifications because of Covid and be able to check out how busy that particular station is at different times. <a href="https://apps.apple.com/us/app/apple-store/id469463298" data-type="URL" data-id="https://apps.apple.com/us/app/apple-store/id469463298" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Citymapper</a> also has updated times, maps and advisories for transportation in major cities.

New AND existing customers get these deals. Everyone wins.   Plus, the Un-carrier goes big to help teachers and students, donating $1 million to DonorsChoose to fund classroom materials nationwide.

BELLEVUE, Wash. — July 20, 2021 — Last school year was a long, wild ride for teachers, students and families nationwide. This year, T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) is helping everyone get back to everything, launching new back to school deals — for both new and existing customers — this Friday, July 23.

And because everyone could use some good news, T-Mobile is continuing its long-standing support of education by donating $1 million to support teachers through <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.donorschoose.org/" target="_blank">DonorsChoose</a>, which goes directly towards helping them purchase critical classroom supplies. That’s on top of T-Mobile’s #CleartheList campaign, now three years in the running, to support teachers, and an <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://twitter.com/TMobile/status/1377999449335730176" target="_blank">over $1 million</a> from T-Mobile and partners to DonorsChoose as part of the company’s #GiveThanksNotPranks campaign. To keep the good news rolling, T-Mobile’s <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.t-mobile.com/business/education/project-10-million" target="_blank">Project 10Million</a> — the $10.7 billion initiative offering free internet and free mobile hotspots to eligible households across the U.S. — is kicking off its second full school year to help close the digital divide for up to 10 million families.

“Back to school is special this year. It represents getting back to so much more that we’ve missed after a really trying year for families, teachers and students,” said Jon Freier, EVP of T-Mobile’s Consumer Group. “That’s why T-Mobile is going big here to help everyone stay connected with America’s largest, fastest and most reliable 5G network.”

“This coming school year might be the most important of our generation, and teachers will need all the encouragement we can give them as so many return to classrooms,” said Charles Best, founder of DonorsChoose. “T-Mobile’s gift to teachers will help students start the year strong and support them during a time of readjustment.”

Back in Class with Best-in-Class Benefits As America’s 5G Leader, T-Mobile is here to help everyone stay connected. T-Mobile’s Extended Range 5G covers 300 million people across 1.6 million square miles — that’s nearly 2x more coverage than AT&T and 4x more than Verizon. Plus, with Sprint now part of T-Mobile, the Un-carrier is widening its lead, lighting up Ultra Capacity 5G across the country and bringing fast 5G speeds to more places than anyone else. Ultra Capacity 5G can deliver average speeds of 325 Mbps with peaks of 1 Gbps, and now covers 150 million people.

Pair ALL. THAT. 5G. with Magenta MAX, T-Mobile’s unlimited plan that can’t ever slow you down based on how much data you use — and students, teachers and families can study more, stream more, watch more and listen more than ever. Plus Magenta MAX comes with <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.t-mobile.com/offers/netflix-on-us" target="_blank">Netflix on Us</a>, taxes and fees included, the <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/jdp-care-jan-2020" target="_blank">most awarded customer care in wireless</a> with a dedicated <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.t-mobile.com/customers/customer-care" target="_blank">Team of Experts</a>, weekly free stuff and discounts from <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.t-mobile.com/offers/t-mobile-tuesdays" target="_blank">T-Mobile Tuesdays</a>, exclusive discounts on accommodations and rental cars with <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://hotels.tmobiletravel.com/th/home/en/" target="_blank">T-Mobile TRAVEL</a>, an unparalleled set of free tools to protect from scams and unwanted robocalls with <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/un-carrier/scam-shield-protects-customers-from-scams-robocalls" target="_blank">Scam Shield</a>, and 40GB of high-speed mobile hotspot data.

Harnessing the power of mobile technology, workers of all ages are redefining the idea of location independence, and with it redefining their very lives.

The term “digital nomad” may initially conjure up an image of twentysomethings traversing the world and posting Instagrammable meals in FOMO-inducing locales. But in truth, today’s digital nomads span all age groups — and a fast-growing sector is the 50-plus demographic.

A result of remote work abundance and delayed retirements, both accelerated by the pandemic, people are choosing to <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/20/van-life-tech-workers-worked-from-road-during-covid-may-not-return.html">live and work remotely full-time</a>, exchanging a hefty mortgage or rent for a more economical RV or flexible Airbnb arrangement that allows them to travel the country, and the world, while still holding down a day (or overnight) job. Indeed, a seismic shift has occurred in <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/26/business/remote-work-taxes.html?mc_cid=f7f94bced7&mc_eid=83c3366f7e">how and where work gets done.</a>

T-Mobile and intergenerational workforce mentorship platform <a href="https://cirkel.co/">CIRKEL</a> recently co-hosted a virtual event called <a href="https://us02web.zoom.us/rec/play/tAJJgMdpzMVn5zpOgCSgwE-CsHLvFMIeOvDL3xiWruRXZ6-tB1YeUjjnjqOR91-LJS7xSJtmOcHYfc9S.YkiPDLVoNCZm0YMt?continueMode=true&_x_zm_rtaid=JMOIqKEiRfG5Yc0G4SA3BA.1625082916834.0d26e8de79427a4d74720a6df4dd1604&_x_zm_rhtaid=786">Un-Careers: The Wild West of Remote Work</a> with a panel of professional wanderers who shared their experiences, offering attendees tips and tricks for making a permanent life on the open road, well, work.

T-Mobile employee <a href="https://www.instagram.com/rooftopadam/">Adam Maddock</a> transformed his Jeep into a tiny-house-on-wheels during a six-month stint as a digital nomad. The youngest member of the panel at 35, he drove almost 14,000 miles to locations like Padre Island and Moab during the pandemic, learning how to do the travel off-hours and making sure he had the ability to be connected to co-workers when it was time to clock in.

Eight years in the Marines prepared Maddock to handle just about anything on the road, provided he had that reliable connectivity.

“I live in downtown Seattle, and when the pandemic hit it was not a great time to be in any downtown and I figured since I’m working from home it shouldn’t matter if I’m here or at the Grand Canyon,” said Maddock. “If I have a connection, I should be able to work from anywhere.”

Though he tested the nomadic waters for a finite period, the two other panelists, <a href="https://www.theradiovagabond.com/about-palle-bo/">Palle Bo</a> and <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/pi4u/">Siobhan Farr</a>, have made living on the road a permanent gig.

Bo found himself selling the bulk of his possessions a la Frances McDormand in the 2020 breakout film <a href="https://www.searchlightpictures.com/nomadland/">Nomadland</a>, and trading them in for experiences: “I sold everything before becoming a digital nomad, and when emptying my loft I realized I had collected so much stuff that I never used.”

An award-winning radio producer and digital nomad since 2016, Bo documents his journey in his podcast <a href="https://www.theradiovagabond.com/">The Radio Vagabond</a>; he now collects new memories instead of things, and says the pandemic has fueled his nomadic life at the age of 56.

“Before the pandemic, if I said to my clients, who are primarily Danish companies, ‘Can we go on Zoom or Skype?’ they would say ‘I don’t know what that is,’ he explained. “So actually during the pandemic, it’s become easier for me because it’s more natural and clients don’t see it as a problem that you’re not next door. Coming out of this I think we are going to see more nomads, because it’s the new normal that you can do meetings on a computer screen and you don’t have to be in the same room.”

While Maddock and Bo set out purposefully to take on the persona of digital nomad, <a href="https://about.me/siobhanfarr">Siobhan Farr</a> is an example of how life and recent events can decide your fate and push you into unknown territory. Farr was traveling for six months when COVID-19 hit and got “locked into Ecuador.” There she was isolated from the world she knew back in Dallas with only her stuffed animal Kicksie to keep her company. A castaway with her own Wilson, so to speak. She realized in her sixties that her life had changed forever, including how and where she would continue her career as a health insurance agent specializing in Medicare.

“All of the carriers that I represented were already moving to allow us to take electronic applications and then the pandemic sped things up considerably, because even though the clients are older, they were getting adjusted to having meetings on Zoom,” she said. “A lot of those digital skills pick up as you move along by necessity.”

Farr said it is “by divine and not design” that she became a digital nomad for life. Call it an epiphany, kismet or a happy accident — it was meant to be.

When trying to find community in the digital nomad space by querying an existing Facebook group, however, she realized she was blazing new digital trails. Upon selecting the 45-and-older age group, she received a pop-up message indicating the group did not support her demographic. Temporarily bloodied but hardly unbowed, Siobhan tapped into the universe — and with necessity being the mother of invention that it is — created <a href="https://www.facebook.com/DigitalNomadsBeyond50/">Digital Nomads Beyond 50</a>.

It’s clear from the panelists’ experiences of maintaining busy careers on the road that digital nomads rely on technology more than their live-at-home counterparts.

“The technology is truly enabling people not to be tethered to a cord to the wall and I think over time we will see more people being able to do this just by using their cell phones,” said Maddock. “I had a phone, a hotspot and an iPad. Those three data sources powered me for six months.”

Farr has traveled to over 35 countries, and relies on her Android Smartphone and Google Fi network as her lifeline to the outside world. She loves landing in a new country, turning on that smartphone, and getting that immediate connection.

All reiterated that having the right device, such as a 5G smartphone like T-Mobile’s new <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone/oneplus-nord-n200-5g">OnePlus Nord N200</a> or <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/devices/revvl-v-americas-most-affordable-5g-smartphone">REVVL V+ 5G</a>, is essential to this lifestyle. It’s no surprise that affordably priced technology like these are popular with the more senior digital nomad crowd, especially when paired with <a href="https://t-mo.co/3xEPS4c" data-type="URL" data-id="https://t-mo.co/3xEPS4c">T-Mobile’s 55+ discounted rate plans</a>, which are available nationwide and include 5G.

Speaking of 5G: Maddock lauded the <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/hotspot-iot-connected-devices/inseego-5g-mifi-m2000">Inseego 5G Hotspot, available at T-Mobile,</a> as an essential connection to the outside world, as there is not always a Wi-Fi network in range. A senior manager on T-Mobile’s digital strategy and planning team, Maddock said because <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/network/ready-for-a-road-trip">T-Mobile’s 5G network</a> covers 92 percent of Interstate Highway miles across America, he was able to travel farther than he thought during his six-month sojourn without ever worrying about staying connected to his colleagues for work.

“I was incredibly lucky to work for T-Mobile during this time as the leader in 5G,” explained Maddock. “5G is essentially the best of short-range in-city signal that you get and the best of the long-range distance over the country packaged into one. It holds a ton of data and has very low latency or delay. So, you’re talking about a technology that will allow people to communicate further, communicate faster and stay in contact and work from more remote places.”

Digital nomadism has been so transformative many have incorporated the term into their personal brand as a descriptor and bona fide skill like a storyteller or change agent. And for some in their supposed career twilight, it’s also redefined how they see retirement — by eradicating it.

“I didn’t necessarily have plans to retire because I love my work, but now being able to incorporate it with my travel and being able to do it from anywhere has brought even more joy to this possibility of a working retirement,” said Farr.

core/pullquote

And more people are joining her online community of older digital nomads, as some — financially decimated by the pandemic — are searching for ways to keep working longer, without living less.

“There are those who might think they’ll be working for the rest of their lives, and if they can’t wait until that retirement to travel,” she said, “this presents a possibility to find something they can do while traveling.”

With exclusive reserved tickets, each eligible T-Mobile customer can score up to four stage-front or premium tickets to sold out shows at first day prices across Live Nation amphitheater and Las Vegas venues. Plus, T-Mobile customers can experience sweet Un-carrier perks at amphitheater shows like express entry, free lawn chairs to use, dedicated concession lines and even signature T-Mobile cocktails. 

That means Un-carrier customers—and only Un-carrier customers---who forgot to pick up tickets early on or just freed up their calendar and are excited to finally get back to live music can still make it to the hottest shows across the country, including 311, Alanis Morissette, Brad Paisley, Brooks & Dunn, Brothers Osbourne, Chicago, Chris Stapleton, Dead and Company, Dierks Bentley, Florida Georgia Line, Daryl Hall and John Oates, James Taylor, Jason Mraz, Jimmy Buffett, Kings of Leon, KORN, KISS, Lindsey Stirling, Luke Bryan, Maroon 5, Pitbull, Primus, Rebelution, The Black Crowes, The Doobie Brothers, Thomas Rhett, Willie Nelson and Zac Brown Band. Or treat yourself to a trip to Las Vegas and snag tickets to one (or several!) of the Live Nation residency shows on The Strip, including Usher, Sting, Gwen Stefani, Shania Twain, RuPaul's Drag Race Live!, Keith Urban, Morrissey, Adam Lambert and more!
