Early retirement ain't as appealing as the brochure makes it look.
I lasted exactly 14 months before I was bored out of my mind.
Glad for you that you got to try it… I have always heard that there are two types of people in retirement : - Those who get bored like you did, need some type of ‘pupose’ and go back to work… - and those who are so busy and fulfilled in retirement with hobbies and travel and friends that they have no idea how they ever held down a fulltime job before they retired.. i know 100% that i am the second type, but thank goodness that we all like different things .

That was 17 years ago...I think I could cut it now
I was waaaayyyyyy to young to live a life of leisure...I was about take up drinking, gambling and wild women...I do enough of the first one now and I have been married to one of them wild women for 36 years and I am too cheap to gamble...I had to go back to work. It is liberating though to know that you can survive without it...
