    Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

                I have about three more years till semi retirement. I want to drive a school bus or maybe a delivery van... 34 years working in the same shop is getting old. I want to work on motorcycles and be a hobby machinist.

                    Ha!
                    Nice, Scott!
                    Yep, someone else can deal with the daily problems.

                    Maybe a big corporation like that, maybe you will not be able to “just stop in” from time to time.
                    I was able to, and was good to visit and chat with folks, and then point out what I DID’T miss.

                        Congratulations, Scott. for making that finish line. I've got no advice. Everybody's retirement is different. One thing I am pretty sure about yours though is that boredom is not going to be an issue.

                        Believe in truth. To abandon fact is to abandon freedom.

                        Nature bats last.

                              I retired last week, put a fresh set of Shinkos on both the front and rear!

                              Good for you on making it out alive, I gave up at 54 and will probably be part timing and picking up "gigs" until I'm 70.

                              I identify as a man but according to the label on a box of Stauffers Baked Lasagne I'm actually a family of four
