Congratulations amigo, but be warned...you're not done.

Congrats; One year ago today was my last day so it's now officially one year that I've been retired. Worked until age 66 so I could get full benefit from S.S. Got that and the pension and haven't even touched the IRA's or annuity yet (thank God for good financial advisors). It took me awhile to get used to not having to go to work every day, but I got used to it. Now I keep busy hunting, fishing, reloading, going to the range, and learned how to sail on Lake Ontario last summer. Keep yourself busy, I've seen too many guys retire to the couch & TV and it seems like a few years later you're attending their funeral. Stay active even if it's only long walks.

Way to go....congratulations!
Biden's most truthful quote ever came during his first press conference, 03/25/21.
Drum roll please...... "I don't know, to be clear." and THAT is one promise he's kept!!!

Good for the Elkhunter! Enjoy your many days yet to come!
The things that come to those that wait may be the things left by those who got there first.

Congrats!!! We'll never quite get to that point but we'll damn sure make time to enjoy what we have as best we can. We all deserve that after putting up with life and so many other humans
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

That's freakin awesome! Congrats, that is what America is all about.
There is some great fishing to be had around Slidell - you might want to consider starting with some of that.
Thanks for being a productive member of society!

If you do it right, you will never be busier! A few years back I retired. Moved 600 miles north to above the Arctic Circle (I didn't get the memo!) Took an advertised 20 hr/week job to keep busy and supplement income so I could hunt'n fish, etc. For the next three years I never worked less than a 60 hour week, I think- often 70 or more. Finally got promoted to" full time", and it dropped to 50/week.... Another good idea shot to hell..... I did change jobs after 4 years, down to 35 per week with a couple summer months off, now. More better! Enjoy your "free time", bud! Be careful out there.....
