I finally got the whole concept of the "retirement" thing and gave it up to go back to work. I'll probably try it again in another five. ;-) |

A former co-worker would comment that when he retired, he "would be the laziest white man on earth". So far he is in second place. He retired after me. My wife voted on it! sigh QUESTION: Why does your back hurt? Answer: I just walked past a ladder. tm |

Question: How many days in a week? Answer: 6 Saturdays, 1 Sunday Pre-retirees often think that they'll need less money to live on once they retire. You know, the old adage of 80% of your current salary. Then someone asks them: What if every day was Saturday? They tends to alter their thinking. |

Hang up my keys too the asylum. I asked Mom: "When did you decide to retire?" How do you get by?" Mom: "if I get hungry I can always go back to work." Love you mom! |

I'd not only want 100% of my salary, I'd want more since I'd have more time to travel or build things. I'm also one of the few people that can honestly say I like my job. I have it made. |

The other thing that many pre-retirees think is that they're expenses will go down once they get older and stop traveling and having fun. They don't realize that the cost of that trip to Italy is going to be replaced with the cost of health care via more prescriptions and trips to the doctor/hospital. |

Between Medicare, a good supplement and prescription plan, our cost is $600 a month. If I retire, I pay it all. |
