USA here........

My dad retired at the age of 56  years old.

On $57,000.
That's United States dollars.

THEN...he intentionally waited to draw Social Security Retirement until he qualified to draw it at 100%.  Instead of drawing it 3 years earlier and losing 20% or more of it monthly. He was 65 when he started getting it.
((for you people in another country the United States pays old people for just being old))

He was an automotive body man his entire life.
His FULL CASH availabilty when he retired was...that $57,000.
His house was paid for, his 10 year old car was paid for and in good condition.

He and my mom never went hungry, and their bills were ALWAYS,ALWAYS,ALWAYS.......paid on time.
My dad was very strict about his bills.

I ...could retire off of $60,000 right now at the age of 57 and live the rest of my life in comfort.  But I don't have $60,000...so there you go. :beerglass:beerglass

Some people have wants that will not do without.
They would rather cry, or kill themselves, trying to get those wants.

Me?....I know we're all going to die soon.
I just want to be comfortable in the process.

But I don't need.....$1,000,000.00

(it would be nice to see the world....but..I have PBS television..so there you go)

In my realm.....an ice cold beer, or a Crown Royal, and Rule #1....is as good as it gets.
Life's short...live it. Don't worry it.
