[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My dad retired my dad retired at 60 - full pension NW around 5M. He waited till 70 to take SS. Worse decision I have ever seen up close. He has wasted the last 15 years watching tv and getting into fights with his brothers. Most of his friends didn’t retire until a few years ago. He says it was like getting to the playground hours before any one else shows up. My takeaway- you need to work until you definitely have something better to do. [/quote] Similar situation with my Dad. One thing helped is that him and Mom hadn’t travelled a lot so got to do that. We have travelled extensively with our children and are able to do that with the leave we get from our jobs. My takeaway from the discussions here is that people that REALLY hate their jobs want to retire desperately and can’t understand people that really enjoy theirs. To the extent, they think they are crazy to want to keep working. [/quote]
