Retired Jan 1 this year at 57. It certainly has been an adjustment, still feels like a "staycation". The math seems to work, at least until age 92, time will tell.
Right now the concept of selling some portion of any remaining life left that I have seems silly. The stress and frustration of day to day work can be accepted if that is the price to support oneself, but if there is enough squirreled away there are certainly better ways to spend the remaining hours of the remaining days left of life.
I think a big hurdle to retirement (besides the money) is coming to grips with our own mortality, acknowledging and moving to the next chapter-likely the last, is a challenge. My father died at 54 and his at 51. I feel pretty lucky, but still trying hard to enjoy and appreciate each day, remove stress and not be a dick.
