Retirement

take the money im 67 retired in 1981 35 years ago

how you get to retire so young mad dog?

Time is precious, take the money.
I retired at 59, no regrets.

55 next year and I'll be on drawdown immediately

Retirement's great.  I've done it several times.

my dad died at 59 work nearly 7 days a week .work will be here when we are dead and gone

Obvs it all depends on the work

On 6th April 2010 they raised the bar from 50 to 55; can you imagine how that feels when you're just two years away!

indeed baron, I was just looking for some toughts around how retirement is as a life style after all you have done is work all your life

I retired at 55 with no regrets. As long as you're are financially secure go for it. Life's too short.

Good Luck whatever you decide.

I don't think I'll ever retire. Work isn't really work if it's what you do because you enjoy it.

state pension is now 66 not that itsworth fick all

only coppers or fireman can retire at 55!!

Or those that have money tied up in old defined benefit schemes. Future generations will never see the likes of those again.

If you don't like your job retire....if you do carry on.

After the honeymoon period people who have worked all their life need something more than a hobby.

i retired last year but got bored, and found myself betting on here all fookin week  just for something to do  ,doing part time gardening about 10 hours a week  self employed now , enjoying it but winter is a coming !

when I retire my plan is to follow the reng cricket team arolund the world

and to live somewhere where the withier is better
