In my case I was lucky enough to retire at 56 and for the last 20 years life has been wonderful but I know others who get bored with no structured work pattern and sit at home watching the TV. Their wives also can find their husbands getting under their feet. Am I one of the lucky few, who love every second of their freedom from work. In no way are we well off financially but feel rich as a king with my free lifestyle and ability to travel whenever we want to.
