I have been reading here for quite a while, thought I would start posting.
early 50's, one foot out the door of work, just putting some finishing touches on the money. My employer has been very accomodating to me and has allowed me to go part time the past few years. Health bennies through SO who has two years to go to take them into retirement. We should have no problem maintaining our current standard of living, and have extra for nice trips etc. as we worked longer than we really had to but I did not want to go back to work once we stopped. I might stay part time until SO quits, or quit sooner depending on how flexible employer remains.
Kids are gone, no debt so we will be making lots of decisions the next few years. Fine tuning our money management skills, whether to stay in our house or move close or far away. We don't seem to be able to make any decisions on where to go so might just stay here where our friends are. I don't anticipate we will have any problems filling out time productively.
I have gained a great deal of knowledge by reading the posts here. It has given me a lot to think about. Thanks to all who post.
