You’ll be sorry

[Operational needs]

It's only been a couple months and I already miss it. I called and asked if I could unretire and come back but they just laughed. To anybody thinking about retiring I would say you don't know how good you have it, stay with it and you'll be happier. Don't be a fool like me.

Are you joking?

Come on now..

I have no idea what the op's deal is, but retirement is awesome. Just the freedom to live your own life and do your own thing, you can't put a price on it.

You had me worried there for a minute. I thought you bumped your head. Lol.

I had already been losing interest with the idea of retirement. But after seeing how much muscle mass, strength, and function I've lost in my arm and hand from not being able to use it since hurting it only three weeks ago, I'm even more convinced that the retirement lifestyle isn't looking like it's for me. You gotta keep your body moving to keep everything strong, flexible, and operational. Your body knows when it is no longer needed and that's when everything starts shutting down.

Only if your idea of retirement is sitting in a lazy boy watching tv/surfing the internet.

Well I can say not a single retiree I've known has yet to sell me on it.

If you think you will be happier working than retired then you should keep working.

 

[Operational needs]

Because you haven’t been in an area where there are a lot of active retirees.

What do they do?

Just think if you was retired you wouldn't get your finger chopped off at work....

 

[Operational needs]

What do they do?

Where I am they go boating, fishing, golf and many more things.

I can already do that stuff though.

I can already do that stuff though.

Only in the summer.

Only in the summer.

I can still fish and ride motorcycles in the winter, and also have other options like skiing in addition. But stuff like that costs money. Even by finding time to do more of it in retirement, that means even more money spent with less coming in and with no promise that those funds will continue to do so or even last.

There are no guarantees with anything except living and dying. That’s why you have to plan for the future and hope for the best.

One thing I've figured out already is that you don't need anywhere near as much money as you think.

Mine hit the bank this morning. Let's raise a glass to all those who plan to work til they die.

ya. that is one thing we worried about. but you're right. we paid off the house before retiring and the pension was plenty and then some to take care of everything. then we started getting social security and thats all gravy.

i'm seriously thinking of getting a Tesla since they are AWD.
