[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even if I didn't have to work for pay in my 30s, I would never announce "We're retired" to other hardworking parents. Surely these folks are finding something worthy to do with their time. If it were me, I'd simply say "We used to work in tech/finance but we've switched gears and now we're focusing on the food bank" or something. [/quote] Some people make up a fake job, like "running our family office." Other people start hobby jobs, like a friend who started a specialized clothing company and is having fun with it. Another friend started building spec homes and now says they are a "builder," and another friend is an "interior designer" with no clients, but at least she gets discounts for her own homes. [/quote]
