[Captain Ahab Jr]

Perfectly sensible decision to me, better to retire too early and go back to work, than to retire too late and wish you'd have done it earlier

I did the die before you retire thing, the experience made me realise how much I enjoy working instead of making me find ways to retire early

I have a retirement plan, aim to work full-time for another 4yrs until I'm 60, then work part-time or full-time for few months of the year as long as the work is interesting and people still want my help

To maintain my quest for exploring, I plan to travel, combination of longhaul trips, overland driving/camping and city breaks. Aim is to see 100 countries before I stop travelling

To keep me physically fit I plan to do healthy outdoor activities all year round

To keep my brain and skills base fit, I plan on restoring my Porsche 930 and build a Lancia Stratos replica

To keep my reactions sharp I plan to scare myself $hitless driving mountain passes and throwing myself down mountains on my snowboard

Porch sitting while drinking beer, golf and watching TV can wait until I'm nearly dead and have lost the will to live
