Confused about dryer sheets
Although I have just registered on this board, I have lurked here for at least four years and seen folks come and go. I enjoy the many different discussions on the various aspects of retirement, which I can look forward to in about 4 years. Both the financial and practical perspectives are valuable.
I am one of the lucky ones with a CSRS pension, so I will not pretend to know everything there is to know about saving or investing as it has not been as urgent for me as it otherwise would have been. However, this forum has inspired me to learn about those things as well as others. The most valuable inspiration has been learning about LBYM, or more specifically, reading about the practical application of that in many posts. Reading about folks' thoughts, emotions and experiences as they reach retirement (such as W2R) and beyond is also valuable and interesting. I think I know what to expect, but it is good reading about other's experiences.
I have worked for the Fed gov't for 27 yrs. I don't hate my job at present, in fact it's quite alright, however I feel like I want to do other things and won't stay longer than I have to. Travel is an interest that I want to pursue more of when I'm dun working.
