Hi
I'll be hitting 55 in a two years and intend to move to a semi retired status ( between 1.5 years and 2 years time ) . I was just wondering if anyone had any words of wisdom on retirement ( not overly keen on that word , sounds like the finish of something when it should be the beginning of something ) , but anyway , back on topic . If you had any advice or thoughts on how you found work not being the major influence in your life . Were there any challenges to overcome mentally from not being chained to a job for 50 hours a week ?
My plan would be to move to employment that more suited a better work life balance from 55-60 ( would have to earn about 1/7th of current salary for those years to not touch my own funds ) then to either continue that after 60 or just do volunteer work . I just would appreciate hearing from people who have already done it to see if they would have done it different if they had their time again ?
Thanks
