[QUOTE="fxdwg, post: 774574, member: 5135"] For me, the idea of helping some kids make better decisions based on my life experiences and skills that I have is my retirement plan. I think some of my less than stellar Parenting decisions over the years are driving this. Maybe it's also because last weekend I taught a kid how to do some very simple routine maintenance on her car (daughter's friend that was driving around with a "CHECK ENGINE OIL LIGHT" dash light illuminated. Her parents, well...they have some issues). Anyway, I was her hero and saved her car from imminent destruction. There's the leisure side of retirement, but the "purpose" side is possibly the time to "give back". I hate canned expressions, but that one explains my state of mind. Hoaxster, your "three things" are extremely thought-provoking (for me). Thanks for posting them. [/QUOTE]
