Yeah...the odd thing is that I traveled so much for work that going West to the coast has no appeal to me at my age. Probably won't travel west or Bentonville where my daughter and son in law live.

Congratulations and after 48 years, it sure sounds like you more than deserve it!

The only advice I have heard from nearly ALL my retired friends is be careful of the Home Depot addiction.

You have all this time, you see a few minor things you want to update, upgrade or fix at your house and you head to Home Depot. It starts innocent enough and you're there maybe once every 10-14 days and don't spend too much. Suddenly you are there every other day and you are racking up $1,000 visits like water.

Before you realize it, everyone in the store knows you on a first name basis, you've been named Customer of the Month and Visa card just upped your credit limit to $50,000.

And... how are you at relating to students nowadays? Ease up and play Grandpa seems the way to go with a behind the back bird at the Admin

Generally, I see women retire at the right time, long before the men. Lots of old guys afraid of not "having a plan". Some are coaches and can't leave that part. Being a PE teacher, working out and listening to rock music all day --isn't that retirement?!?!

There has been no Medicaid discussion. You are in need of some education.

Medicaid = Free healthcare for the really dirt poor at any age

Medicare = Healthcare for everyone 65 and older

I'd go crazy if I retired.

We will see in 10 years if I feel the same way.

Enjoy it, man. My father retired years ago and he's handling it great. Has a lot of hobbies, keeps occupied. My mother, not so much.

Congrats!

Speaking of Florida, my dad retired to The Villages and while I might change my mind in another 15-20 years, it seems like my kind of retirement life (well, except that it's in Florida). All kinds of stuff to do... softball leagues, bus rides to a different beach every week, live music, etc.

I love retiring here in Florida...was what we planned to do anyway. But the nice part was the company paid to move me here 7 1/2 years ago.

So much to do...explore....and a lot of beaches to sit and relax.
