Retirement

Transcript

Another thing I hadn't anticipated was when you retire early, no one else is retired. So, it's like playing hooky. When I was a kid, I'd pretend to be sick so I could get out of school. And, you know, I'd be sitting around the house bored. You know, there's nothing on TV, at least when I was a kid there wasn't, because, you know, it was soap operas. And so I'd like think, well, I'll call one of my buddies. Well, I can't call one of my buddies. They're at school. And I remember thinking, what a waste of being out of school. There's nobody to be out of school with. And retiring early is a little bit like that. Now, don't take this as complaining. I'm not complaining at all. Super happy with my retirement. And I actually like doing stuff by myself. But it's something that I had to kind of realize after I retired. I mean, I should have seen it coming, but it just didn't occur to me. And so I had to kind of realize after I retired. Until I retired. And you just have to realize that you'd better like doing stuff by yourself, because you're going to do a lot of stuff by yourself.
