I suppose it's a blessing if you can still function at that age. My grandpa was fine until he fell one day and hit his head. He died a week later. His body was too old to heal from that.Wifey's Uncle turned 100 last month; we went to So Cal to celebrate. He told me he is interested in "A1" (he meant AI) and that he plans on living to 105.

I wish I could do that.I retired at 55 years of age. The wife and I travel frequently. Life is too short to work-IF YOU DON'T HAVE TO.
Of course I worked pretty hard up to that point......
i work 6 days a week 1/2 of the yearA good piece of advice I received as a younger man was to always live below your means. A lot of people are slaves to their stuff. Most of us increase in our earning potential yet so many are still living paycheck to paycheck because their lifestyle increase always matches their earnings increase. Then when something comes up like a layoff or emergency expense etc they are panicking scrambling to make ends meet because their is insufficient savings and little financial wiggle room.
And yes, what's the point if ya can't enjoy your life a little.
Do you work every other week or take off a whole half year all together?i work 6 days a week 1/2 of the year
Flat out scary.Great posts everyone. No doubt we all need good full-time jobs to support a family and save for retirement.
And things get more difficult every year.
I talk to quite a few people about retirement and many don’t take planning for it seriously.
