I'd have easily bet that you would be a happy camper in retirement. Mentally, we savers have a hard time
thinking there will not be a paycheck coming in. Unless you work until the day you die, it is going to happen
sooner or later. Even though we are great planners, I think most get a little cold feet, until we see that the plan
we set in place actually works, and I would guess in many cases, works even better than the original plan.

I've had a running joke with the wife ever since she retired, that she needs a job. The last time, she reminded
me how much I spent at Christmas and then wrote a $1500 check to buy the boys some Apple. I told her that
if she was working I could have written a lot bigger check. She just won't bite! She's ruined.
