I'm going to do this, I've taken a bit of time thinking about this post and I'm just going to do it. I'm not throwing anyone under a bus, but some of these things just have to be said,
"Out Loud. You need to know !" and NOW IN A BOOK
My post has become a book, NOW on KINDLE
JUST a few to the things I COVER !
1. You MUST have a sense of humor, you MUST laugh, OUT LOUD,
2. I had to learn the difference from CHEAP and FRUGAL.
3. It’s alright to eat alone, I love it,
4. BEFORE you retire - GET YOUR MONEY in Order
5. It’s just the way life is,
6. NEVER again say,
7. And, on that note, same with, Medical talk,
8. Be Kind, with (old) job titles and big ego’s
9. Do a random act of kindness.
10. If you see it, do it, don’t ask,
11. When I tell you what I want
12. And about check writing,
13. Stop starting any conversation with, “I remember,”
14. A hard one…..personal hygiene
15. Stop sharing every thought,
16. Learn to text, short, sweet and done.
17. Drive with both hands on the steering wheel
18. Piles of papers are just piles of paper,
19. Stop eating on a schedule,
20. Don’t make noises
21. Do not talk about anything that happened

ReplyDeleteAmen sister! I'm 3 years into retirement too and am enjoying this new lease of life. Feels like life is opening up for me now. So much more to learn, to experiment with - we are so blessed!
ReplyDeleteIt's SO much fun. We pinch ourselves daily. I recommend it to everyone. Thanks for reading and keep watching

All so true! Thanks for your wisdom, Beth. But, you know that most of your thoughts should be for everyone, not just for us retirees. Keep smiling and stay happy. (Glad you have two bathrooms? )
ReplyDeleteI am so blessed, laughing and this morning danced cleaning the kitchen. Thanks for stopping in and keep watching - Beth
DeleteWonderful suggestions, thank you! Because I honestly had not thought of most of them but they really do make sense. I can't wait to retire!
ReplyDeleteThank you!!! We are retiring shortly at around the same age as you. People keep asking us what we will do! I have a great reply now "Whatever we want, whenever we want! Just not going to work everyday" I look forward to more time with family and friends :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Beth! So funny and true!

ReplyDeleteThanks it should passed around to retires to read!!!!
I retired early so I still have to wait til I turn 60 (9 more years) to get my monthly pension. My husband doesn't want me to say that his earnings are just his. What he earns are ours. Anyway, being an early retiree doesn't mean you cannot enjoy because you're no longer earning. The bright side of retiring is that you get to spend more time with your children whose at their adult stage but not married yet. And parents who need you at their side in times of emergency.
ReplyDeleteJust enjoy every moment of your life, alone or with someone close to you.
What do you do for health insurance since you both retired early? My husband just retired (age 57) and our insurance is provided through my employer. I’m 56 and wonder what options are available for those not yet 65. Thanks for the tips!!
ReplyDeleteHusband has is from his old work and I'm on a policy myself. We planned on it and I over saved, which is just fine !
ReplyDeleteTax planning is a massive ordeal for some retired people. It takes up a lot of planning regarding analyzing the sources of funds. It allows you to maintain your lifestyle and hence you need to keep your tax consequences in mind.Adult Day Care Los Angeles
