Hermit
Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
Hi, I’m Hermit. I’m retiring at 63 and I’m planning to build a cabin to live in year-round located in a high mountain valley in the middle of a national forest. I have a daughter that just graduated from college and a son still in college. My wife of 30 years died three years ago which is why, at least according to my earlier plans, I am retiring early. It will be just me at the cabin. I’m deeply involved in a Christian kid’s camp in the Valley and have committed to a large gift to the camp and also plan to help out (certainly not “w*rk”) at the camp while I am able. This will involve a move from southeast Virginia and I will also need to buy a new Jeep to get in and out of the Valley. With retirement and all these other items coming together at the same time, I have questions for the Fire and Money forum on how best to manage my nest egg.
There are several summer cabins in the Valley, but in the winter, there will be the camp maintenance man and his family, one retired couple, and me scattered across the valley. It is truly a beautiful (but cold) place, so I’m looking forward to becoming a very Happy…
