My job really has no physical requirements these days, so it's not like I'm breaking my body at work. As long as my mind is relatively sharp and I still enjoy the work, why quit the paycheck?

yup. i could do with less bull****, but being the age/position in your career that you can just leave with a few days notice, and no one can do anything about it, sure cuts down on the bull****. amazing how that works.
a rule i have for life is you are either making money, or spending money. and you need to spend a reasonable amount of time making money, even a little bit, you dont even have to make much money, just so you don't just spend money with all your time.
id drop to 50% time at my job in heartbeat if i could afford it. that seems like a better retirement plan than just not working at all. work would be more fun/better, and so would life.
