I don’t know who called it Retirement, I’ll Google that later. Retire from what is my question. The only real, lasting retirement in this life is death. When you die, you really retire. Yea, I get it, you can retire from a job or career. I won’t argue with you. But something is incomplete when people ask you what you do and you say you are retired.
Go ahead, I dare you, ask me what I do today. I live. Enjoy each day. I invest. I put some part of me into the market. I serve, making someone else’s life a little richer. That’s my idea or Dream for retirement. It might be a little slower, it might be a little faster. It’s certainly refocused, but it hasn’t changed much.
So go ahead and ask me what’s it like to be retired. I’ve got an answer for you, long one of course.
