Just thought I would stop in and say hello to everyone. Great forum and nice folks here. I've been a frequent reader, but decided it was time to sign on after retiring 4 weeks ago at age 57. My wife also retired about 1 year ago at 55.
I've worked as a machinist for 37 years. Not a great way to make a living, but we set out some long term goals early on and somehow things seemed to have worked out. Two kids through college, house and cars paid for, no debt at all.
We began investing with Vanguard many years ago and after much number crunching and learning from this forum I/we decided it was time to cut the engines and see how we glide.
I may eventually look for some sort of reduced/flexible hours job to keep me busy, but for now I am just enjoying my new found freedom and look forward to making new friends here.
