Yes, a lot of people wait until they are too old and in bad shape to retire and basically end up having worked their whole life just to leave money to their family, if they managed to accumulate some. I haven't worked for anyone else since I was 32. I planned to retire fairly comfortably by age 55 but things happen. I quit a job I'd had for 6 years expecting to work for the competition after an offer of pay 50% higher than I was currently getting.. Long story short, I had some time off between jobs and found I could make enough money from investing to live on, so I figured I'd wait a while to go back to full time work.. I never did.. I did some part time self employed work and made enough that I could let my investments grow without touching most of it. It was a simple (cheap?) life but I liked it for the most part.. --- * SLMR Rob * Love is grand... Divorce is twenty grand... * Origin: capitolcityonline.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/HTTP (618:250/1) .
