I figure in another 65 years I'll be ready.


Maybe.....
 
Retired the first time in 1989. Got a call from a Sheriff's Dept asking I work for them the day after I retired. Did that a short while and learned they did not pay enough to pay my wife's whiskey bill. Left there and went to work for a company that paid me little while they charged a bunch for my time and work. So......I opened my own firm and been working ever since. Still do consulting for police agencies, courts, insurace companies and attorneys.

Now I am old enough to draw full social security but would get penalized for each dollar I make so I am not going to sign up for it until next year, if I live that long. Then I will draw SS and still run my consulting business.
 
i dont think im gona make it that long, i see alot of people retire then go get a job that pays little, i think ill just work till i die or cant work!
 
Another 9 if I can hold out that long. For those who say they can't find anything to do, there's always a hunting or fishing season open somewhere . . . . :D

Sir, if you mean tires, we're good on those. Got Michelins of some sort on the Liberty, BFG All-Terrains on the CJ, plenty of tread on both. The knobbies on the mountain bikes are good, too, as is the tire on the wheelbarrow. Haven't got a tire tree swing, so no worries there.

If you mean stop working forevermore, well, my options are to either keep working or die.

Hope this helps, and Semper Fi.

If you are talking about the rubber kind (and I think you are), I just ReTired my 97 SUV with inexpensive Cooper (Mastercraft) radials. $99 apiece. Nice tires for the money!

Retired in 2005.
Life is good! If your talking tires I like Michelins and BFG T/A Radials.

Retired at age 53 back in 2005 and have never looked back. I don't have any retirement income, that's what the bride is for, did I mention that I love her a lot? (o; The key to retiring early, and the earlier the better, is not a lot of income.... just not much outgo. Everything we own is paid for, we live simply but well and life has never been better! Retire the first nanosecond you can swing it and you will never be sorry. As for tires I have always been a steel belted radial guy. (o;
 
I am 65 but I am not officially retired. The first part of this year, I had so much to do, it was difficult to keep up. for the last couple of months I have done little. I design software and I do what is needed to keep my customers happy. I am not seeking new work but I will not quit as long as my existing customers need me. Working out of my home makes this easier to do.
 
23 years in with a pension froze at 19 years and 23 years to go. That is if I live to 65 and the place stays open.

Good lord that is depressing. I really need a career change.
