Thread has made me question should I retire early and if I'm fooling myself about enjoying my work

Then I remembered over the years

Went back to work next morning after being hit by a car cycling home from work

Went back to work 3.5 weeks after a cardiac arrest/3 day coma

Wet back to work on Mon. after having a hernia op previous Fri.

I must enjoy my work or I've had Stockholm Syndrome all these years :confused:

Recently when I told a friend I plan to retire in a few years he belly laughed at said 'You'll go straight from work to your grave' :eek:

Intend to prove him very wrong, I hope

For all those that have retired early, good for you, power to you for having the financial means to do what makes you happy :cool:

Rod, you're so right, gets me down sometimes, not touched it since last Oct and I'm desperate to spend time on it :(

Have only about 5 or 6 weekends of jobs to do then I'm calling in the professionals as I can't see work calming down until earliest 2026
