Hmm... Signs up, asks strange question in strange place and immediately unsubscribes from it. Odd. smiley - erm

No, I'm fairly certain that's not the same as me.

Age is nothing really. If a person inside feel green himself he will be young for forever.I know people who are retired but still a full of life,humorous and very nice. On the other hand i have friends like my age at early thirty,they are lost. They lost the interest of their life. They haven't taken any initiative so take themselve out from their miserable situation. So, to me age is not a factor to enjoy ourselves in this beautiful planet. I will be very sorry if i caused you feel anything bad. I am just trying to practice some English.

It's funny, but if I'd been asked a couple of years ago about retiring, I'd have said that I couldn't contemplate it - now I am full of envy of you and counting the last few years to my own. Are you enjoying it? I do hope so.

the best advice i was given before i retired was,A.don't leave it too long before you do,and, B.discuss with all concerned(family)your intentions at least 10 years before you intend to do it.
i took early retirement 8 years ago,it's a great life.
