...educated. Right away the book made me feel guilty. "New York's public servants now stand a fair chance of collecting a pension for longer than they worked, and in many cases they earn more in retirement (including Social Security) than they did on the job. Thus 'retirement' has expanded from a modest sinecure at the sunset of life to a long and lucrative second career." The shoe fits. The...
Well as of Friday, I'm officially retarded oops! Retired and will be going on terminal leave in about 20 some days. The retirement ceremony went pretty well, it was light on guests and command personnel showing up, but over all I'm happy about doing this and the weight of this havs been lifted from my shoulders. After the ceremony the family and our guests went to Gordon Biersch ...
I am talking to a Real Estate Agent tomorrow. It's almost time to sell my home I think. I miss my Pooh so much... I have a plan, that will let me retire December of 2010. I hope I can achieve that. ...several months. I sure hope I do, because with about 18 months left, it would be great if those months are enjoyable. Our neighborhood "garage sales" are coming up soon, I plan to sell a lot of things
Tomorrow I'll think of something profound to say. Right now I can only think of how much we owe them both and wish them well. I like to think of Paolo sleeping late, eating fatty foods and spending long, lazy days with his family next season. I like thinking of that more than thinking how much I'll miss him.

...saving up an emergency fund first. You should have an emergency fund of about 6 to 8 months of living expenses. I would recommend saving up at least 3 months before you save for other expenses. Retirement is another financial goal that should be put into action as soon as possible. Make it a goal that you have set up from the beginning. If you open up a 401k or IRA you can have the money withdrawn...

If you’re like most people who are planning for retirement you have been socking away your money in an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) or 401(k) plan. And when the Dow Jones Industrial Average reached 14,198.10 on Oct. 11, 2007, you thought you were set. The Dow was running up. Your retirement funds were growing. Everything looked good. Then stocks began a downward slide that turned...
I was awake until midnight watching the final 90-minute episode of Key the Metal Idol, which is very emotionally up and down, as are all my favorite anime and movies. I stayed in bed until after nine... But I think I'm finally starting to relax. I'm going to try and take a month or so to let go of some of what's happened to me during the past several years, before I make decisions about the future
...creaking after first set and are only a little sore afterwards. And even this piddly amount was enough to make it to the Hobbits' first (frugal) supper . In a way, this is the first day of my temporary retirement. I find that my brain, so practiced at avoiding unpleasant thoughts, has already erected a wall preventing any unintended consideration of what is going on back at my former workplace. I'm fine...
