Life after work
A recent survey of Canadians disclosed nearly 70% of them plan to work after retirement. Of those 70%, 72% plan to work in order to remain mentally and physically active, 57% to stay socially active.
I have a better option ... go buy a kayak and use it to get the mental, physical and social benefits. That's what I did. The physical and mental benefits of kayaking are obvious. Only I didn't consider that there might be social benefits. I didn't consider I'd meet a great bunch of people that would develop into friendships.
Now I have to plug in my musical brain to prepare for guitar practice. No time for work!

I'll be retiring soon and don't plan to work another day of my life. While I won't have all the fancy things some find important I'll have everything I've ever wanted.
ReplyDeleteMy philosophy too Lee - have enough to live and do a few things you enjoy and enough is enough. Some things money can't buy anyway.
