Sorry.... I didn't really see a better forum to post this.
The main reason that I might seek ER is to try to find meaningful purpose in life. My job, most of the time, doesn't provide that and I feel that I'm not doing much more than trading my life for $$$. In some ways, that borders on prostitution!
I don't have any hobbies that would fill the void and buying an RV and traveling all over wouldn't do it for me or DW. I have a small side business that I planned to work on developing in ER so that wouldn't be REAL retirement, more like changing jobs... but it's work that I would much prefer over current job.... I THINK. I hope!!!
I know that people who retire and haven't figured out how to deal with this issue struggle because their daily routine is no longer there to fill the void. I know some say "follow your passion" but I think that's a bit dramatic and a more reasonable approach would be to just find meaningful purpose.
