Hi all,
I found this nice forum while googling early retirement.
I'm 48 years old and am seriously thinking about retiring when I am 55. I work in IT in a stressful role but make decent money at $140k a year. I've been working since I was 14 and I think I am just tired.
Here is the thing. My husband is 18 years younger than I am so he has a long time before he can retire.
I am just wondering how this would work with him having to keep working but me being at home all the time?
I'm in Australia so I have no health care/insurance worries.
Anyone else here at retirement age but their spouse who is still working isn't?
