Retirement Paths

Here is a heartwarming promposal for you to watch!

I found an interesting article in the newspaper this week.  It was discussing '7 paths to a fulfilling retirement'.  'Shifting gears to your life and work after retirement' was written by Marie Langworthy and Carolee Duckworth.  They are both retired.  So which would you/did you choose:

Leisure, volunteerism, travelling, engaging new work, entrepreneurship, student, or life as a creative doing art, design, etc.

It seems I would create art.

I spend my time since retirement with walking, art and reading - good! Valerie

We have decided to become landlords and rent out a room in our house. It is a lot of work preparing for this.

So much to choose from! I'd like to continue doing art. Travel and leisure would also be great, but since I don't have the budget for that now so much so...

I do everything I can! Volunteering, drawing, relaxing!

If I was retired I would travel if I had the money to do so

Traveling! That is my dream retirement.

At 53 I am quitting my job and following my dreams. I just got back from the Bahamas, traveling on a private yacht. It was awesome and the cool thing is you can do it too. I also love to volunteer with wildlife. Right now I work with the Bear League in Lake Tahoe, CA. I think no matter what you decide to do it is important to live life to the fullest. Go out and find it, seek it, live it...and live it with gratitude!

Although I had planned to retire early and work for a nonprofit, that did not happen, so my retirement life has been one that is filled with volunteerism. I do good work with good people, which is all I wanted to do anyway.

This was an interesting article many thanks! I hope I will be healthy when I will retire because I would love to be creative much more and go out for hiking and biking. But I have still more than 15 years to work and to save my money.
