Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
Just curious what age you thought would be for your own retirement, when you were 30 years old. I picked 30 since by then most are in a career path and done with education or training.
Myself I thought around age 60 for retirement from a full time job, and then would pick up some consulting or contract type work after that for another 5-10 years. I am glad that I did better and was able to retire at 53.5; along with no plans to do any additional consulting or contract work. In fact I am not going to keep my professional engineer (PE) license current any longer. Why pay the money if no plans to use it?
