Not having a job is great, but not having a paycheck kinda sux.

I am on that extra $600 a week unemployment plan, please keep going to work and paying your FIT. thanks!

Lol.......

I will never retire, I do whatever I want whenever I decide to do it, I just cannot imagine not having anything to do but go golfing or fishing, I just have to have something going on. I am very blessed to be self employed and have my son's working in the business with me, they pretty much take care of day to day operations, I just kind of hang around and act like i am working.

I retired from the fire dept at 51 in may, plan on taking up a second career , but wow what a weird feeling. My family is still looking for the every three dad free day.

Same here, with all the corona bs I’ll probably hold off for a before doing something else. You’re correct it’s weird not going to the station every 3rd day after 30+ years of it.

Worked in the corporate world for a number of years and decided to chuck it. Started my on small service business with the plan of closing up at 65 . I had a very good run and actually retired a year earlier than planned but kept a small side business going. Had I not done that I would have gone crazy. Now I work on my time and schedule.

Some Sunday, I will not be so worried about Monday.

Everday is a Holiday

I am retiring in march no matter what. I have 5 years money to live on out of the market. The rest still in the market. The longer you put off retirement the less healthy years you got to enjoy it

managed a large mall and 12-15 shopping centers in a 3 state area for 27 years...retired at 65 and had a long bucket list of things i wanted to do...been blessed with good health and enough money(barely) to get most of the things on my bucket list crossed off...prior to retirement,I was real active fishing tournaments to the point I guess i burned myself out on tournaments plus I had some long river and car trips I wanted to do which would have interferred with fishing a tournament trail....I've been to argentina dove hunting and Mexico/Falcon fishing 15 times,numerous Ark.Miss and La. duck hunting trips,traveled down the Miss.,Ohio and Missouri rivers,driven the Trans-Canada and Alaskan highways,toured the western states and new England states plus eastern Canadian provinces...also wrote a book about my river travels (Old Goat in a Tin Boat) plus several hunting,sailing and river travel articles for ESPNOutdoors and various other publications...
I can say without a doubt it has been best 15 years of my life....

p.s. also managed to get banned twice by bbc....

Needs to be at least 3x to be a bucket list item

I retired 3 times and am now looking for something else to do.

Fixing to retire academy that’s a good idea
