I wish I could post his picture. A retiree who left a year ago, looks twenty years younger

Of course how about the retirees who left a few years ago and now we are going to their funerals.

They all say GTFO

I haven't the slightest clue how any FT driver could possibly do this 6 days a week. I'm going to go out on a limb, and take a guess that a majority of the drivers here that do work Saturdays for extra money, are very senior drivers with extremely cushy 5 cube countryside routes. I'm dead by Friday afternoon. And I'm no runner gunner. I take my sweet time all week. Safe and careful. And I am absolutely dead tired come Friday after my hour meal. It takes everything I have most weeks to finish out the day.

Those are the ones who for the most part retired and then shut it down. You have to remain active.

I guess that is my biggest fear. Get up in the morning with nothing to do and no place to go.

Mine as well.

My SIL and his friends own a maple sugar business that I am trying to get involved with. My son tells me to do my homework before investing any time and/or money as he thinks it is more of a hobby than a business.

I would like to find a non-profit that needs someone with good organizational skills and a lot of free time.

I am also looking forward to playing Grandpa.

My SIL and his friends......

Is your SIL the one you sometimes refer to as "....what's his name...."?

Yeah.....sounds like a solid relationship.

They could just switch to a 5 day on 5 day off schedule. I'd be down with that. Have staggered schedules to make sure staffing is covered. You could work a 6th day for OT if you are an OT whore

He used to be "what's his name". Now he is my son in law. He is a good husband and amazing father.

Getting up and having nothing to do? I can't relate because there doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day.....cooking, cleaning, appointments, dining out, favorite TV shows, coffee with neighbors, hot dogs at Costco with friend, etc.

Those are examples of busy time. I am talking about doing something constructive (worthwhile) with my time.

Everything that you described is busy work. There is more to retirement than busy work.
