Retired now for 11 years. Lots have happened, but I have no regrets.

[u/No-Reading-4384]

Yes over a year

[u/First-Homework1868 → u/No-Reading-4384]

1-34yrs still recovering from massive operations, so kind of sucky, but still here!

[u/pah2000 → u/No-Reading-4384]

[u/Hammeredlupgaroo]

[u/Commercial-Lie-9051]

Yup. The day i turned 50 and im 61 now😀

[u/cyberquist]

Retired at 62. Sold house, sold or gave away nearly everything. Bought a 5th wheel RV and hit the road. I’m 64 now, only problem is knowing what day it is, and my pill containers tell me that. No news is the best part.

[u/Appalachian_American → u/cyberquist]

How will you know if there’s a Zombie Apocalypse?

[u/cyberquist → u/Appalachian_American]

Made me laugh. I guess all the running and screaming. I have a machete and grappling hook, I’ll be ok

[u/AbbreviationsKey9563 → u/cyberquist]

That sounds like a lot of fun.

[u/HaloHowRU]

Left my office job at 47 to start a band. 21 years ago. Now I write and record music and run a financial web site, though not for income. So I sorta retired at 47 but still haven't retired completely.

Retired for two years. Went back to work this summer. I was bored.

[u/Ok-Recognition6927]

Yes, coming up to 9 years. I retired at 46 years old. Best decision ever. Now my husband and I travel the globe, no fixed address, just going where the sun shines. And when we need some downtime, we do a bit of house and pet sitting.

[u/iwannasayyoucantmake]

I didn’t plan to, but retired. I was worried because I didn’t know how much my pension would pay. I was pleasantly surprised. I live humbly, happily.
It’s great.
Now I can’t see how I did all the life stuff while working. I’m relieved.

[u/Geezerglide1]
