I used one of those sites where they calculate when you can retire and live out your life on your savings and pension plan income. I can semi-retire and go down to working part time when I turn 95, but will have to return to full time work if i live to be 100.
When I turned 60, I began doing calculations, based on retiring at 67, when I could start collecting full social security. But for a while it looked as if I’d need to work for several years after I died, just to break even. Then at birthday 67 I considered that continuing until my 40th work anniversary sounded like it would be a nice achievement. That was only 7 months away. All was well and good until I into the parking lot one day, and it hit me – I really don’t have to put up with this $#!t anymore. Gave my notice and retired three months earlier than planned. It has been three years so far, and I have not regretted a moment.

Of course, Weenus can eat anything he prints – the ink is vegetable based.

For several years I’ve been saying 10 more years to retirement
I have an awful feeling I’ll still be saying that in ten more years

The three big expenses of life. Not necessarily in that order.

Mr. Wiggly: Last panel, lurking around Weenus’ desk top.
