Re: Retirement – good or not so good?
I suppose I’m working up to my retirement, as some may know, I quit my job last year after 30 years, the last four with a company I didn’t want to work for ( not my choice) I took a job in a nursing home as the maintenance man a lot less money but a lot less stress, I took advantage of accessing my private pension and, after spending some of it on projects, it still leaves me with some to use should I need to walk away for whatever reason, I plan to cut my hours down to 2 or 3 days a week in about 3 or 4 years, before fully retiring 2 years after that, I’ll see, we all know how life gets in the way of plans, maybe I’ll bring things forward if I feel like it, the most important thing is I’m in control of things for the first time in a very long time..Re: Retirement – good or not so good?

I love retirement - such a wonderful feeling of finally being in control of my life!Re: Retirement – good or not so good?
I took early retirement at 62 and haven't regretted it one little bit. A neighbour of ours did say to me that, after about 6months, it would suddenly hit me like I'd run into a mental brick wall that I'd no-one to teach, help with their research, or carry out my own research. She was right. One morning, a couple of months after we'd moved to Worcester, I hit that mental wall and, boy oh boy, things didn't feel great at all for a few days until I got myself sorted with new hobbies.Re: Retirement – good or not so good?
