interesting reading, some enjoy their work and want to go on forever, others like me feel the need to move on. I have never seen a grave marker with the words, "gee I wish I worked more". I was going to wait until I turned 65. Unfortunately leadership treats folks like, well lets just say not like people. Death by a thousand paper cuts I call it. I gave them 6 months notice after they cancelled my trip to see my son who I see once a year because of his Army obligations. I had to be present for an inspection that didn't include me. Out June 30th at age 63. I don't own expensive items (like airplanes, boats or multiple cars) so I really don't have to support anything other than myself and the babe. The hobby will go in a box(s) until we settle on a location other than the peoples republic of New Jersey. Some of the stuff will likely be sold or donated because it will not be moving with me and we won't be looking for a large space. If I end up with a spare bedroom that will be more than enough. The realization that I can make as much in retirement as I do working at a thankless job sealed the deal. Time to try something new.
