I'm retiring in one month and wife doesn't work. We're both 55 yo.
One of the ideas I have long dreamed about is the freedom and leverage that being unencumbered by work will provide in terms of last minute travel deals. I always get these airline deals in my email with crazy low fares but they usually require travel within 30-60 days.
I'd like to hear from you if you have regularly taken advantage of these type of deals and your favorite ideas or creative approach for maximizing the value of flexibility when it comes to your cost to travel. I'm thinking we should shift our mindset to not planning any significant paid travel more than 2 months in advance and just jumping on last minute deals to save 50-75% on typical costs.
