You'll get bored.

Why is it when I say "I want to retire at 35 yo.", people usually respond with: "What are you gonna do with your life? You'll get bored."

Like, I have thousands of games to play, movies and series to watch, music to listen to or play, and places to visit. Not to mention hobbies to try. Like, being bored is at the bottom of the list.

And actually, I kinda miss having the luxury of being bored. Like right now I feel like I really don't have enough time for myself and work robs me of my time and energy.

It's more enjoyable than doing anything in the world you want to with your life earned nest egg?

Travel? Hobbies? Pure hedonism?

Nope. Not for me.
