I've been lurking here for a few weeks, and there's so much good info, I decided to sign-up.
Anyway, retired from the Navy in 1995 at age 42. Worked in operations for a lower tier cargo airline (read FedEx subcontractor) for a few years. Downsized out of that. Tried teaching for awhile, bad experience there. So I'm now 55, don't work, and live in an inherited house, in the small southern Illinois town I grew up in.
I never planned to quit working after retiring from the Navy, but the years and events have rolled by, and here I am. I guess you could say I ERed by default.
