[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s all about what works for you. I went back to work full time a year ago at 58 after almost 30 years as a sahm and PT consultant. What nobody tells you is staying busy and happy and fulfilled takes a lot of work. I wasn’t happy once my kids were grown, parents died and husband returned to the office. [b]Lunching, Yoga, pickleball and travel got old and having my life’s purpose on most days being making dinner walking the dog was honestly depressing. [/b]I couldn’t imagine doing just that and volunteering for 30 more years. I love the structure and camaraderie of work and the paycheck. My job is not high stress but it’s interesting. I’d like to work til 65-67. Just my perspective - and we have a little over 5 mil now. [/quote] I mean that would depress me too, but there are a lot of things I want to do instead that are unpaid or cost money. [/quote]
