<<My husband is still in good health and loves his work and I doubt he will ever retire. >>

I retired when I was 31, hated retail. Had a lot to do and kept busy. Last couple of years have been the computer and TV. I'm thinking about looking for a job now at 58.

My father was in the men's clothing business for 58 years. I found a buyer for the business and building at way more than either was worth. Family told me I had just killed my father, sold his business. He worked for about 6 months for free for the buyers and quit. Told me in his last two hours of life how he enjoyed fishing and golf since he retired. That sticks with me.
