It's a day walking in the park with your buddies. Number one advice from an older guy: have enough money so that working beyond retirement is an option, not a requirement. Slowly phase out from your career if you can. Develop hobbies now, try travel, charity work, time with the family. Here's a radical concept, especially for those who are on a tight budget: raise the grandkids in return for compensation from your kids (room, board, whatever). The grandkids get the benefit of your years of wisdom, plus you have more time on your hands to give to them. Your kids love it because they don't have to constantly juggle the hectic pace of a career and child-raising. Plus, who to better trust their kids to than their parents? <BR/>Speaking of "Time to kill", here's a question: How many millions of years can you stay "occupied" in heaven? Talk about boredom: Strumming a harp, preening your angel wings, praising God...then what? (Better pray for reincarnation! What better game is there than THIS, eh?)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
