Nope, never heard of people like that.In my Rule Your Retirement newsletter, I regularly profile people who have retired and live enviable lives (some as young as 38!). One fellow left his job as an engineer and now travels four months a year and maintains a website about early retirement. Two others are a couple from California who sold their restaurant and now literally live around the world.
. . .Did anybody else think this Robert Brokamp was Al Bundy (Ed O'Neill) from Married With Children?
Gem of a post. Once in while I do get a good laugh from some of the postings here and that was one of them.ERs have achieved an incredible opportunity not available to most: they have time. It seems a pity to squander it, (again, after the obligatory detox period)
ER does require some thought about what you want to do when you have 24/7 to do whatever you want. I agree that if you quit work and you have no interests in doing anything the brain cells will start to vanish one by one. Free time could be your best friend or your worst enemy.
