[QUOTE="quad decade guy, post: 5074923, member: 77939"] Well.....I call it a love/hate "lifestyle". I love what the money allows me to do....away from work. That said....I hate the rest of it. Pkg.was a beating.....Feeders....at night.... etc. Having enough extra money to not really have to "worry" makes the rest of it tolerable. I don't go to work for the work "lifestyle". While still working....I go on cruises.....hunting, camping, to the Big Easy...even Hawaii. Just on vacation. It also allows me to have a nice high performance car and airplane. Things( some even UPS'ers) dream about. Most people retire at 62-67. I will too. That's just the way it is. So, I don't worry about it. I see a lot of folks being frugal all their working lives to retire "early". Then maintain that frugality the rest of their lives....just to stick it to UPS. I'm not going to be-"We've gathered to remember Bob......thinking of all the things he never did or experienced....missing out on life's possibilities and bounty.....but he was frugal and stuck it to UPS." BTW, I wonder what most retiree's lives are really like. I MEAN REALLY. [/QUOTE]
