Well, I can’t say for sure that I never want to quit what I’m doing because I might one day want to hang it all up. Who knows what the future will bring.

I will tell you though that when my Dad retired at the age of 65 he thought he wanted to play golf every single day. Gosh he did love his golf and he did play almost everyday for three months straight. Then one day he told my Mom that he was bored.

Yeah… My Dad bored playing golf! We all almost had a heart attack over that one but he realized that he “thought” that’s what he wanted but his mind was still in overdrive. Know what he did at 65? He started his own business.

Sure, he didn’t work five days a week 24 hours a day like he had but he made his own hours and because of all the relationships he had built throughout his career, that helped him with a smooth transition into this new venture.

His health eventually made him have to quit that who starts their own business after retirement? I say we should all work until we decide we don’t want to anymore. I know for me I will never be able to sit on my butt and do nothing. Might as well just put me under now.

Thanks for sharing this and go baby boomers!
