I'm going to consult. 1 to make some good money, and 2 to piss off Outback. laugh
I can book 20-30 hours a week $115/hr plus costs all day long. Problem is they want you for more hours than you want to give in a retirement status. I'll have some non-reimburseable costs so that number probably drops to $85 but that's enough for me once I hit 60. It will cover all my personal expenses and insurance plus allow my retirement fund to grow for at least 5 years before I start tapping into it.

Only potential kink as someone mentioned is health. All that goes to pot if the health does.


not sure what the best way to handle them is but they shouldnt be on tv and gettn married and raisin kids

Also got a good family friend with a sizable high fence operation. He's told me I'd have a spot managing his operation in the future barring we're not both dead. It'd be a toss up between full time tractor man or that.

If I need to work, Im currently workinv in the Fuel business on the Govt side. Consultants and Contractors make better money than I do working for government.


Life is a journey. Make sure and bring plenty of Beer.

My luck has been so bad lately, it could be raining pussies and I'd catch one with a dick broke off in it.

Traffic signal consulting,tractor work,grass cutting, garden growing. Hold on this seems like too much work. Maybe I'll just sit on the lake and fish


Two roads diverged in the woods and I took the one with deep ruts,hills and mud.It may be bumpy but WHAT A RIDE!

The stereotypical old guy that sells the fishing licenses at the Walmart at the beach seems like a good gig.

I will be 50 in two months. I have a 2 year old daughter. I will die working.....

After 911 I lost my ass in the market and focused on land and rental property. Started a mini storage business a few years ago and between it and rental property I'd be fine to retire as long as my health holds up. Problem is My money is tied up in things that require effort to keep going. Truth is I will probably practice law till I croak.

Well,I am "retired" after 20 years in the Air Force. Retired E-8 don't pay enough to live on. At 42,I used my experience and came back on the payroll with the govt and will continue on until I'm 62......maybe older. I still support the uniformed and like what I' doing. Main thing is use it or loose it. You have to keep moving.

I dont want to retire, every person I've talked to has always said the same thing when asked about being retired "they're busier working more now then they did before they retired"

You are wanted in Orange Beach immediately!

When I retire I'm going to sell lawn mowers and artificial reefs. Probably set up a school or two for real estate and captains licenses on the coast until the market gets fully saturated.

Well I've hunted and fished as much as possible and have my morning walks but really haven't found exactly what I want to do other than those things mentioned
