I am 57 and planning to retire this year (class of 2015, yea!)
I am wondering what kinds of "projects" people engage to get them occupied, especially those in the first few years after their retirements.
Even though I am so tired of the projects and "initiatives" coming down every quarter in the mega corp, I think I need some on-going projects to be happy after I retire. I already have a few in mind: backyard improvement (DIY), get myself in shape to do some long backpack trip, computer projects (person finance and market related), or maybe take up cooking and painting.
I'd love to do a long travel (around the world), but right now I am home bound with aging parents, dog...so only short trips here and there.
