As of 2/18/22 I am RETIRED !!!!!!. Plans? I got lots of them. I am in perfect health so that is a wonderful thing. I think that good drugs, Heavy Metal music, and BAD girls (good girls are no fun) are why I am in good health. LOL

I have not posted many of my builds because I didn't take the time to photograph them. Now I can set a side one day a week just to photograph. Get my bicycle tuned up and enjoy the rest of my life.

So now I am in The Old Geezer Club and looking forward to be more active in this wonderfull community.

Thanks

Mike

Congrats. I'm busier since I officially "retired" than I was before. Lots to do...just because I want to.

James Dean is supposed to have said "Dream like you're going to live forever. Live like this day is your last".

Pretty much on-point, I think.   :D

Good for you! Definitely keep busy as that will continue your good health. The thing I remember when I first retired was trying to form a schedule each day. It came around eventually but was a little sketchy for a bit.

Congrats ! I have been retired for about 8 years and its pretty nice. No more meetings and team building B.S.    Now waiting a couple years till my wife retires and get a motor home and see the sights. That will most likely be the end of my model building.

Welcome to the club. You will at sometime soon forget what day of the week it is and realize it doesn't matter anyway.

Starting my 21st year of retirement.  Took a couple of years to "slow down" and realize that if it didn't get done today there is always later in the week or next week.  I have thoroughly enjoyed my retirement and look forward to several more years.

Congratulations! I've been retired for 15+ years. Treating my body as a playground for 60 years by listening to too much AC/DC, racing motorcycles, go karts and automobiles plus lifting things too heavy for my size as well as indulging have left me with ruptured discs, arthritis, bad lungs and I can't hear squat. I'm almost 78 and my modeling skills are diminishing as well. Eyesight and shaky hands mostly. Enjoy your retirement while you can. Life is about giving up things along the way and there's a lot I can't do anymore (haven't played golf since I broke my back in 89). But I regret very little though. It's been a heck of a ride. Very few regrets. Lucky you. Rock on.

12 more years for me. I'll be 59 in May, and 60 is getting closer every day.

 I won't retire until I can't work. I've got 28 years left on the Mortgage, and I cannot afford to be without a paycheck.

But, I am doing well so far, although as Tom S, says I'm starting to give some things up.

Good On you Mike. Enjoy Retirement.
