The big step

[Ahamay]

I have signed off for retirement from work all being well it will be 30th June.
I am at the RTE 25th Mar staying Friday night so anyone can buy me a beer

Lucky you - 2 years 6 months to go for me - ENJOY LIFE

 

[John Young]

5 to 8 years still for me .........

-6 years for me, best days work I ever did, the day I retired. You young whippersnappers keep working hard I'm enjoying the abundance of the State Pension you are providing for me.

Ah what to do today; walk the dog, school run, lunch with my wife, Million Dollar Quartet (matinee pensioners special), nice evening meal, Metro Travel on Gold Pensioner Pass, early to bed. Living the dream.

Love, light and kindness,

Dave

You know, Dave, those lessons you took in how to win friends and influence people have really paid off, haven't they?

On the other hand, I was sound asleep at 7 am this morning...

2 years retired so only worked30 weeks in 2017.
I enjoy working to get the extra cash to ride.

 

[jaybee]

I retired 5 years ago - earn my bunts through property rentals.

 

[FazerPhil]

I'm in the building game and should have bought property when i could instead of enjoying myself. Did do up a couple of properties to finance a car and a family holidauy in florida when the kids were young

I'm in the opposite camp. We have lots of properties - but not yet totally paid for which is why I've got a least 5 years to go .......

I rather suspect that whatever one does, it's invariably the wrong decision .....
