[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trouble is, when you’re in your late 40s and suddenly find yourself out of a job, you might really miss the structure and (albeit tiny) sense of purpose it provided. [/quote]
Are you speaking from experience or just speculating? Because I'm retired and don't miss structure. So many people are afraid of retirement and worry they will be bored or they have stories of people who go back to work because they had nothing to do, blah blah. I heard all of them as I prepared to leave. I'm sure it's true that many people have a hard time but many people love retirement. If you have the means, you should retire as early as you can. My health was starting to suffer and I had enough money. Some people fear not having enough money or fear boredom. Know yourself and what you want. It does take adjustment but I do not miss one thing about my job or career.

In the meantime, I would take time off and get away as often as you can. That can break up the monotony, even if it's just a staycation or occasional mental health day. [/quote]
