I got off my death bed and went back to work a few weeks later as I realised I quite enjoy working
Don't let anyone make you feel guilty about retiring at your age as they are only wishing they could do the same. You've worked hard, saved well, nothing wrong with enjoying the spoils.
When I retire I'm sure I'll find plenty to keep me busy, don't plan on just stopping work completely but as the years go by I'll probably be a bit more choosy on what I do and who I work for.
Last year I gave myself the summer off, every car I've ever worked on was someone else's top priority so after nearly 30 yrs I made my own project the top priority.
I'll work the full year this year to refill the piggy bank bank but as I enjoyed myself and achieved so much last summer I'm already planning on having next summer off or switching to a 4 day week from Christmas.
Money is a great commodity to have but so is time
