I wasn't on this forum five years ago, but I can certainly visualize what I would have said. Did my ER thing at 55, so five years ago, I had been retired for six years already.
At that time, I expected DW to hang it up any day, since the stress of w*rk was already starting to get to her. Much to my surprise, she stuck it out for another two years before deciding enough was enough.
As it happened, just about the time she was getting ready to give notice, she learned of an opening in the same place doing something she had enjoyed doing many years previously, at half the salary and half the stress of her current job. She decided that she enjoyed the social aspects of w*rking enough to go for it, and has pretty much enjoyed the last three years in that role.
Finally, she has admitted that the time has come, so she will retire for real this coming summer. It won't be early retirement, but she's beginning to look forward to it, so that's good enough for me.
For the next five years, I see us doing lots of travel and generally living the good life while we're still able to enjoy it to the fullest. Already booked an Alaskan cruise and starting to look into visiting some of the parts of Europe we haven't been to yet.
Financially, we're set. Pensions cover nearly all our essential living expenses, so our WR will be low, at least after we have some fun with it over the next couple of years.
The only thing I need to work on in the short term is to continue simplifying the portfolio so it can run on autopilot most of the time and give me the space to take up another hobby or two.
