PatKirby · M
@Degbeme

Like that, gonna use that 😀!
Degbeme · 70-79, M
@PatKirby By all means.
Are you kidding? With prices jacked up since Pandemic/Supply crisis and inflation? Pretty soon we may need to take out a mortgage loan for groceries.....
nedkelly · 61-69, M
Yes, and the best decision I made for a long time
PatKirby · M
@nedkelly

No more rat race for you Ned?

Semi - retired. Retired from state govt 4 years ago, but, now I am working part time on contract. Its what they call "double dipping"
Guardian · 56-60, M
In my mind, I retired 10 years ago. Unfortunately, no one else knows it
CoffeeFirst · 56-60, F
I was saying 10 years....but then 3 years flew by. Who knows?!
Miklee02 · 51-55, F
@CoffeeFirst every year I say 10 more years 😅
HumanEarth · 56-60, F
No, but might be forced to due to my epilepsy/seizure disorder coming back.

So I might be forced into retirement against my will
HumanEarth · 56-60, F
I went from June of 1996 to May of 2023 without a seizure. I lost my job from seizures on top of it
HumanEarth · 56-60, F
I been having a seizure 3 times a month since May of 2023
@HumanEarth I'd think you'd be able to file for disability given those circumstances.
I don't work, haven't in years
@OldGrandDad still a full time mom and wife but doing something I love even though the pay sucks
@saragoodtimes I've seen you in the best. I am aware!
@OldGrandDad thankful we can survive without me working
helenS · 36-40, F
I will retire when I die 😏

@helenS
I'm with you Helen
PatKirby · M
Three or four years to go then moving to Panama.
Slade · 56-60, M
I am temporarily. I'll be busy again very soon
AbbeyRhode · F
Far from it, and I never will be.
Ferric67 · M
@AbbeyRhode that's me too
Northerner · 70-79, M
I retired 3 times and hated it.lol
FreestyleArt · 31-35, M
I will be for the Public once I get my career going next year.... hopefully I can work my dream at home. I have a studio in my room.


Hopefully God will grant me this next year and continue my career as a Manga artist.

Hopefully I want God to give me the strength to do animation....do I have enough though? Nobody is helping me but God.

My fear for my career...I suck at writing no matter what. -_-

I can do voice overs. Drawing. Possibly music, it depends on limited schedule.


Writing is my worse enemy XD
Planning to retire early summer of 2025. Depends on the economy and my investments.
SW-User
too busy making easy money
Musicman · 61-69, M
@SW-User What are you doing to make this easy money?
SW-User
@Musicman well I'm fully employed and been in my position for 23 years and been working from home since the pandemic almost 4 years now?
Musicman · 61-69, M
@SW-User That's awesome! What type of work do you do?
Spumoni · 46-50, M
Had 13 more years, that changed to 18 to 20
Miklee02 · 51-55, F
@Spumoni dang ☹️
TexChik · F
Retread maybe, but not retired. I am not sure I ever will.
OldBrit · 61-69, M
Yes.
Last worked in 2017 retired in 2018.
smiler2012 · 56-60
Miklee02 · 51-55, F
@smiler2012 I’m so very happy for you and so very jealous
nedkelly · 61-69, M
@smiler2012 More time for your favourite pastime - break and enters
Torsten · 36-40, M
no where close, thank fully. I cant imagine what i would do with all that free time if i was not working. I need to work. I like having a purpose outside of being a parent, if that makes sense
Northerner · 70-79, M
@Torsten Like I said in my post I retired 3 times and still working . I felt worthless not working
Torsten · 36-40, M
@Northerner you get it. Thats exactly how i think i would feel. Outside of work, my worth is being a father but my son is a teenager now and will soon be a man and will need me a lot less. I need a purpose outside of being a parent, despite that being my main purpose
Coldplay · 56-60, M
Nope. I wish.
@DearAmbellina2113 you are still too young!
Picklebobble2 · 56-60, M
Had hoped to be by 50. But endless periods of 'economic downturn' since i started work mean i doubt i'll ever be able to retire since everything i've saved is nowhere near enough.
Bill1372 · 51-55, M
I am… I have another job though. I have expensive boating/fishing habits and golf. Need a little something coming in to cover that
Another five years to go.
I wish I could retire now already , but I still have to pay bills and accumulate more for after I retire
Musicman · 61-69, M
Yes I am, but if something doesn't happen I am going to have to go back to work. 😢💔
Miklee02 · 51-55, F
@Musicman ugh 😩 no way!
I am. Initially disabled. But that classification changes at full social security retirement age.
Teslin · M
Unfortunately not yet. 1 - 3 years, hopefully no more.
wildbill83 · 36-40, M
my body says yes, social security says no... 🤔
Yes, Covid retired me a few years ago.
MrGomco · 36-40, M
I saved a lot of money during two years and got retired in 2018 for almost one and a half year, kind of sabbatical time, that was a bad choice, I got sick, I felt alone, bored and empty inside, all my friends were working, that just was terrible.
OliRos · 18-21, F
I've not been in bed long...
mksworld · 46-50, C
What's retirement? 8-)
Montanaman · M
1 - 2 years left 🥴😎👷
aldnazmeister · 56-60, M
Yes. I have been retired for a little over a year now.
I am enjoying Oregon Duck football as a season ticket holder, bowling, camping, and of course some adult beverages every now and then. :)
Miklee02 · 51-55, F
@aldnazmeister you are so lucky! 😊
Synyster · 51-55, M
No, not yet. I’ve finally have my retirement job as a director for a federal government department. 4 years and I’ll have a great pension to finally retire.
JesseInTX · 51-55, M
Just over a little over 3 years is what I’m looking at. Even then I’ll still probably do some consulting work. But that will be on my time and when I want to.
I hope to be next year but i will keep my work going for a bit longer
matthewjames · 18-21, M
well I dont work so is that mean im retire
DragonFruit · 61-69, M
Yes, I retired 6 years ago.
I will never really get to retire..
Raaii · 22-25, F
no I've not even started yet
Ontheroad · M
A long time ago and enjoying it!
Jimmy2016 · 61-69, M
🤔.............I haven't decided yet? May semi?............
Jeephikelove · 46-50, F
Hopefully in 8 years 🤞🤞
luckranger71 · 51-55, M
5 more years should do it
