When is the right time to retire

[DOSZORROS]

I will dip my wick in this thread one more time. "Retire", to me, does not mean to set in front of the TV with a six pack. Retire means to be able to do what you want to do when you want to do it; not punching someone elses clock.

I retired in 1988 and during my "Retirement", I worked the Exxon/Valdez oil spill as a consultant, accidently got in the land development business in Idaho, done a major rebuild/remodel on two Wanderlodges, built two experimental class airplanes, developed three residential properties from dirt, done major remodels on three residential properties, managed a hospital remodel project and put over 200,000 miles on 5 different Wanderlodges.

I done this on my clock because I wanted to do it. That is my definition of retirement. God willing, I'm not ready for the rocking chair yet. As I stated previously, you have to have a reason to get up in the morning.
