Replying to a commenter Lawson Great observation Jerry…

Jerry makes a great point. He said he took a week off for his 51st birthday and felt disconnected and that he thinks retirement's going to be rough. Jerry, you experienced, in my opinion, one of three types of vacations when you're working. I won't get into the three types, but I'll tell you the type you had was I went on vacation and I didn't really enjoy it because the silence was brutal. And going on vacation and comparing that to what your retirement will be like is a little bit like going into the wilderness with no survival training and comparing that to what survivalists experience. Without the training and the knowledge, you can't survive in the wilderness. And I believe that without the training and the knowledge, it's hard to survive retirement, meaning you just end up back in the workforce. So. What you experienced is great because now you can say it looks like I need to learn a little bit more about how to retire and you've got time. But I would definitely put some work into learning how to retire. Otherwise, you'll be one of those people who who makes it out of retirement alive, meaning you retire. You decide that you just can't take it. You don't like it. And you go back in the workforce and you do what I call living your second phase of your working life. Only in the years where you. Should have retired. You should have retired.
