Having retired a number of years ago (about 15) one very important thing to remenber is do your best to make them pay the retirement for a long time. In doing that there is a real sense of having achieved something and got back at the system. So don't wait too long, just remember the guy that said life begins at 50 was a lying *** who didn't know what he was talking about.
