Default what ya gonna do when ya retire

I have a ways to go yet but thinkin into the near future I know I dont have near enough lined up for my retirment and all that free time

We plan to move up to our cabin and sell the joint we are in now so the cabin will be our full time residence....I need to build a shop/garage up there thats for sure....this is at 8k elevation so winters are tough and take up about 6 months of the year as far as decent access in and out

during the winter months we plan to purchase a decent pusher and hit the road and go where ever the hell we please then when the weather is good we will be back to the Wyoming mountains for the other 6 months

I have several hobbies including Harleys, wood working and ofcourse the truck bad habbit

what you gonna do during retirment ??????

Well lets see I will be 25 this year and have 29 years till I can retire so I have plenty of time to think about it. Probably buy a piece of property down by Lake Norris in TN. I love that lake and love boating.

Since I am only 22 I have a few years to worry about this. I plan on moving out into the country on about 100 or so acres, wooded with a big pond and a huge house/garage. I would actually like to do this before I retire so that I can have the abode paid for before before I retire. I plan on working on my big boy toys, building stuff, and basically relaxing around the pond. I also want to visit all of the states, and each country in the world (not the dangerous one's).

i have a feeling I'll still be lobstering....

a friend of mine just retired from Bath iron works
it's a general dynamics corporation.
they build destroyers

he worked for them for 25 years as a engineer he designed the plumbing on the ships. he has always worked in a cubical...
now he's retired and is bored. he said he rather be back in his cubical.

so he's on the search for a new job to take up his spare time..

he has hobbies with his old trucks and cars. one 1977 3/4 Chevy with a built 500 caddy. that rig is freaky! i thought he was gonna break my neck in that thing
