A wishful thought for a fancy ToMoRRoW :
Seems i am waiting to retire when i am 60? Working like a dog and saving bit of penny to make it happen? What if i don’t make it to 60? What if i do make it to 60 and find that inflation and other evils have trashed my nest egg? Even if i make it to 60 with enough in my kitty, i may find that all the things i wanted to do in retirement may not be possible because of failing health and general lethargy.
So why not to retire when i am 35 or 40 with some reasonable savings,take up a low stress job or small business to cover my needs, control my expenses and live a simple life? That way may be i 'll get to retire in the prime of my life…mind you, the way i define retirement here is not necessarily to sit at home doing nothing but rather to have the time and more importantly, the freedom to do whatever i love. If i want to sit at home doing nothing, that qualifies too. Remember what they say, people often spent the best years of their life giving away their health in exchange for money and then spent their retirement or latter part of their life spending that money to get back their health.
God knows Am I working too hard and spending long hours at work?
Need to think about it…for all I know, I may be building my own coffin at my desk every day !!!
