I'd sell it all but the boat and your residence, if that was a major hobby. Personally, I like stowing away. But you could sell it and buy rides on really big boats that give you all the food you want.

Then, there's this...

Message 20750061 Stop off and ski where you want.

60 1/2. I work part time; per diem. Probably work until my daughter gets out of college, which is approximate when I turn 65.603, or until I find something better to do, or until the post carbon collapse hits, when I plan to be rich and trade silver for coffee beans.
If today was then, and everything else was the same, I'd probably save $300/ month from my SS check. All the rest of my retirement stuff is gravy. Only thing I really need to still do is set up my own electrical company. Maybe even get a dividend from PGE every month.
And, as far as scrimping, I live better than our last KIng George. Warmer house, my entertainment system is better than his jesters, I can eat fresh oranges all year 'round,and, when I take a cruise and get treated like him, I don't need bodyguards and a court along.
My biggest $ problem is how I'm gonna deal with what I inherit from my mom,which is likely to be 7 figures. I think I'll have to gave half of it away, B4 the ink is even dry on the check, or else I'd probably never have another peaceful night's sleep.
