Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
Today is the fourth anniversary of my retirement. It has gone by so quickly it stills feels like it was only yesterday.
A few observations on the past four years...
We're spending a little less than I thought I would and my investment accounts are doing better than I thought they would. Good combination although not something that I am expecting to last forever.
I enjoy taking an occasional consulting assignment (maybe 20 days a year) to help remind me what I left and to throw a few extra $$$'s into my mad money account. Having stepped away from the business I find myself looking at situations in new, refreshing ways. Clients seem to like that.
While I do have some slow days I have no problem keeping busy.
When we travel now I have a totally different mindset than when I traveled incessantly for business.
Stress....what stress!
And finally thanks to all on this site for their guidance and knowledge on such a diverse range of subjects.
Cheers!
