Hi everyone.
Someone on the SavingAdvice forum recommended I join the crew here. I'm 56. DW is 57. I'm not quite ready to retire yet but the numbers are starting to approach the point when I will be able to. I'm a full time physician. I'm not yet sure if I will stop working entirely or switch to part time or per diem status but we should be in a position to do that in 2-3 years.
Going PT would allow me to keep health insurance through my employer, though at a somewhat higher premium than I pay as a FT employee but still less than what we'd pay to get our own coverage. And, of course, continuing to earn income would limit what we'd have to draw from our portfolio.
I'll share more details later but for now I just wanted to introduce myself and start reading all of your posts. I look forward to sucking up all of the knowledge you all share, and hopefully contributing some of my own.
