Our retirement was planned from an early age. After seeing my parents getting older and retiremen looming in the distance I took advice and started planning my pension fund.Re: What's It Take To Retire Comfortably?

During our 8 month rainy season two of my three hobbies are subdued somewhat. I jump at the opportunity to grab my camera when there are dry days forecast. Really beautiful weather doesn't happen here until July when the rain stops. There are festivals everywhere in Oregon. There aren't enough hours in the day to visit them all, but I try. I'm having way too much fun in my retirement that one person can stand.Re: What's It Take To Retire Comfortably?

Health is always a top priority whether it involves retirement or not. It's sad to say I've had family members drastically affected by a sudden death of a spouse. Retirement changed instantly when my sister and her husband, Joe, discovered their youngest daughter, unmarried, had a child by a man now doing a life sentence in jail. They used up most of their savings caring for another family of 4 for 15 years. Now that Joe suddenly passed away my sister is alone with little money & a huge house to maintain. You can't always plan for any contingency but the need to start early in life saving for retirement is a must. I only started 5 years ago with my last job but was able to put away enough to retire now.
