I am 12 years away but I was thinking I will spend the mornings on some crackpot forum over a cup of joe and dig into some wikileaks stuff from the obama era. Never really thought about it much, but I would like to know what is in there one day.
2 years ago I wanted to ride a motorcycle around europe, now a healthy dump and something amusing sounds like a better idea. |

Post conspiracy theories on arfcom and generally bitch about the generations after you.

Sitting on the couch drinking beer and watching TV for a year or two and then dying is a popular option in some circles.
|

If you are married, don't worry about it. Your honey-do list will expand exponentially. I had more free time before I retired.

im still a long ways out from mine.
probably move back to the home/property where I grew up, we own a lot of land in the mountains. build things in the garage build a cabin on the property might work part time at lowes a couple days a week just to see all the new tools coming out keep reloading learn more about gun restoration/smithing continue planting the garden hunt hiking on the property with the dog (I will always have at least one golden lab) set trail cams out to watch the wildlife but I mostly love making and building things with my hands, I really enjoy the engineering aspect of it. |

I just spent $800 on leather working stuff for a new hobby. You can only reload so much.
|
|
|
Put your skills to use.
I do historical research and write books/articles. |
|
Prepare for the best time of your life. As long as your health holds out and you have developed some hobbies/interests in retirement you'll be enjoying those golden years.

Start a bunch of projects that your not qualified to work on, then call your Son to finish them. But, call in the middle of his work day, not when you know he has free time. It seems to be working for my Father...

I bet I would have for dinner twice a week, fresh fish, I caught earlier that day, from the ocean and/or the ICW.
Knock half a dozen stokes off the golf game with instruction/practice. Shoot firearms more often. Travel. |

Go to the gym and or endurance train for triathlons hoping that there will be races in 2021. If not then I will just enjoy being very fit.
Go to the driving range and hit golf balls between golf lessons. New to the game and I hope to get good at it. Continue to meet swinger couples. Hunt a lot during deer season and do one exotic hunt a year. Beach fishing when the weather is nice. Planning an AMTRACK trip from Houston to Denver then Salt Lake City to visit my wife’s son and my brother. |

OH!!! I forgot... Hunting, Hunting, Hunting!!!!!!! Phesant, Hog, Deer. Squirrel... and so on... and Fishing, fishing, fishing ..
|

I wake up whenever. Go for a 6/8 miles walk and either work around the house or travel between Az and LA
Retirement is pretty sweet. |
|
I do lots of desert walks while shooting stuff, drink beer, fix stuff for my wife and daughter, hang out at my buddys range and occasionally screw off in Alaska.
Retirement is glorious. |
|
I’m buying the biggest Nordhavn I can afford.
... and captain on my own. .... unless I do well enough to afford a hot blonde captain |
|
Make birdhouses and stand in your yard in your boxers with a beer for half the day making sure your neighbors KNOW you're watching
|
|
Get a part time job.
Go fishing. Get a part time job that pays you to go fishing. |
|
Porn hub KY and viagra if on a budget.
Hookers and blow if you retired with a big gov pension. |

I've been retired over fifteen years now and we're having a blast! I went to the range yesterday to get some work in and cold bored a 10" plate at 994. Yep. I'm having fun at 67.

In my case I’ll be tending to my vineyard in the south of France occasionally wondering what the poor people are doing.
Or checking receipts at Walmart. I’m torn. |
|
|
... I'm sooooo glad that I retired before all this bullshit unfolded
|
|
I want to work camp. Buy an RV and spend different seasons in different national parks around the area.
Doesn’t really sound like retirement. |
