I retired at age 70 after working in the office machine computer industry for 47 years. All during that time I was on call 24/365. Do I miss some of my customers and the travel around a lot of two states-----------yes.

But retirement is fantastic. Again you have the freedom of a teenager in the summer!!!! It is the freedom from someone telling you what to do, when to do it, and of course right now! At long last I am in charge of my life. I have the freedom to bike when and where I want to. I have the freedom to work at the church, and other volunteer work. I have the freedom to travel to an event anytime they set the time.

In case you didnt pick up on this-------the operative word is FREEDOM!!!!!
