Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
if you haven't read it, put doing that on your A list. i devoured it in 4 days flat. and plan to read it again, slowly so it absorbs. i got in the bad habit of speed reading to get through mountains of contracts. i need to unlearn that and enjoy a book slowly.
i digress..of particular interest to me was chapter 7, Challenges of Semi-Retirement. The list included Guilt, Boredom, Panic, Bruised Ego, and Financial Worries.
i'm still a kid at this FIRE thing.
can I ask the longer retired folks here to tell me if (and when) these things happened to you?
I'll go first...
I have no guilt about no longer working. Not one ounce.
Boredom has hit, cured it with volunteering.
Bruised Ego - what's an ego?
Financial Worries - didn't hit until my property and income taxes are gonna both hit me in April. but it's covered.
