Retirement
5 years ago
For most furs retirement is something their grandparents are ether planing for or just starting their retirement. It's not something that will be on their radar for many decades.
For me retirement age is not all that far off if I live long enough to make it. Both of my parents died before they could retire. Not that they did not have a great many plans to spend together in retirement. They just did not live to do all that things they talked about doing.
Baring some great disaster I would have plenty of enough money to retire so money is not my issue. My issue is that I have nothing to do and no one to spend my retirement time with. I have been thinking lately that I may just keep working just so I have something to occupy my time until my death when ever that may be. It's just so depressing that I will be so alone that many times I have thought of speeding up the process of my death but that is a cowerds way out. I have never had any respect for anyone that used that escape even if I can really see the draw people have of such an easy out from all of ones problems. Many decades ago a coworker who was 18 hanged her self. I looked at it back then and saw it as the cowerds way out and have never changed my mind on the subject. I never put any great effort in ending my own life dispite thinking about doing it a great many times. So as things stand since in all likelihood that I will be alone do to me chasing off any prospective partners by my extreme social awkwardness retirement is just something others do and is not for me.

edit~ jk you've seemed to already have done that :D
I had to give one jack away because he was becoming a major liability problem and my other jack died this last Christmas night.
I do appreciate your attempt at humor. Just not in a humorous mood at the moment
Yeah I know Francis was a mule..
I am going to retire fairly soon, and I do have my interests, and I do have some money to do them, but will I find more things that interest me? will I decide to travel? it sounds interesting, staying 5 or 6 months in a single country, no rushed tour-guided run through the most popular tourist traps? I will have plenty of time to figure it out.. as long as i stay healthy.
