02Sled Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Aren't you only semi retired Blake... don't you have some business interests? I'm not in any hurry to retire. I like what I do, my boss is in another country and I would get cabin fever too quick. Everyone is different. I see myself working to at least 65 at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The beauty of retirement is being able to do all the things you want to do and have ever wanted to try but were never able to do because work took up too much of the week.

The beauty of retirement is being able to do all the things you want to do and have ever wanted to try but were never able to do because work took up too much of the week. I know what you are saying. As for now I am having a good balance of work and fun I think. My former boss loved to play golf and go fishing. He thought retirement would be great. He could fish and golf whenever he wanted. Found out after playing golf 4 or 5 times a week it wasn't "special" anymore like it was when he waited for the weekend or took a day off work mid week. Another had a large list of things to do around the house. He puttered at them for a month or two then said "what do I do now". As it is now we are into the "in between season" snowmobile is done and boating is yet to begin. This time of year drives me insane at home on weekends.

02Sled Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 I have figured out my retirement I am on the freedom 97 plan I know what your retirement will look like... you'll cut back to 10 hours a day. Some people just love their work. The gentleman who owned Husky in Bolton was going into the office in his late 80's early 90's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

02Sled Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 It's been a couple of years now since I was in to Central Outboard on Woodbine Ave but the old guy with his signature captains cap was still going in each day. Murray I think is his name. He checked out every deal his grandson made apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
