[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our plan is May-September in Rehoboth Beach (already own a place) and the rest of the year in Florida.[/quote]

This, to me, is the absolute number one worst retirement plan ever. It is the cliché from hell. I cannot imagine it.[/quote]

While you were typing this, someone posted that they're retiring to the Villages.

THAT is literally hell on earth to me. If I were given the choice of living in the Villages or going to prison, I would have to think about it.[/quote]
+1 I have a friend who moved there in her late 40s with her early 40s husband. I. Do. Not. Get it.[/quote]

You're too young to get it. It's like when I was young and single and couldn't imagine going to an all inclusive resort instead of traveling to an exotic locale. Then I had kids and realized how easy and fun the resort would be and how hard it was to wing it with kids somewhere more exciting where you have to plan every meal and activity.

I wouldn't move into a retirement community now. But when I'm 70 and most of my friends moved away, I might see the appeal of having immediate friends and activities. It's just easy. At 70+, many people want easy.[/quote]

Oh I get retirement communities -- my mother (80) lives in a beautiful independent living facility in California. She's thriving. Best thing she ever did.

The Villages is a very different thing. The Villages is hell on earth.[/quote]

It's actually Hell's waiting room.  [/quote]
