You have to slowly ease into retirement ... if you do it to quick you end up with a vacuum.. so everything is done slowly..
Your day starts ... when "YOU" start your day... then you ease into it slowly... don't rush.. a quick power nap in the afternoon before going out to the early bird supper... then home to unbuckle for guys.. and become a beached whale in the recliner.. and degas while watching reruns.. a quick snack and off to bed by 9-9:30.. so you can do it all over again the next day..

Well just start putting away more than you make. Spend nothing and live off the land. In 47 years the retirement age will probably be 85. Good luck!

On second thought those are union jobs. You'd be in high cotton!



I'm beginning to wish I had to 85 to prepare for retirement.
