Can't wait to retire???
All those Starbucks visits, roaming around all of the various stores looking for fishing stuff I don't need...... sitting by the pool, having to adjust the house A/C, without a remote!! Everyone else is working.
Now I do get calls from those who ditched their jobs for the day and are out tugging on bass. Nice. BUT, they even call to fill me in on their fishing day. Geeez.
Tinkering....... we all tinker!
There are serious issues with retirement.... all those people who call me while I am fishing and ask if I've caught anything yet? What scents am I using? What are they biting? What # test? Hook size??? Geeeez. No peace.
There is no worse crime when they call me and I am out on the ocean, rod in one hand, coffee in the other...... and I'm forced to put my coffee on the rail and answer their numerous questions. Then they have the nerve to ask me to fish on the weekends as it is their only time off. Geeeeez. Weekends are just for me and my family, OK.......me. Retirement is stressful!!!!!
Hey Stevie123, only 42 years for you to work?????
Save, save, save, and save your money. Don't buy crap. Settle for 30 or 40 rods. You don't need 70 or 80. Save as much as you reasonably can, and then retire in 35 years. Now that's retirement!!
