Ah Scotland - my wife and would retire there tomorrow if they would take us. Our daughter is a graduand of the Royal Conservatoire in Glasgow and we will be there next spring for her wedding reception. I will waive as I go past West Lothian when I sneak out for a round at the Old Course -

somewhat similar situation - my skills are deep but narrow I’m lucky in that one of my playing partners just retired and so did my brother, and I’ve also become a regular with a good group of guys at a local cigar lounge many of whom are retired or work flex schedules. I’m also very happy to fish or golf or do solo activities thank you for sharing that -

Thanks for the replies. addressing a couple things - I’m fully vested for lifetime medical coverage (and so is my wife through her job) - so that double stacked coverage removes a big “what if” that a lot of retirees need to worry about Regarding money - suffice it to say that I would have more if I worked than if I retire. I’m a frequent poster of FIRE forums (financial independence) FWIW I’ve lost 6 friends and colleagues aged 54-56 in the last 3 years Just replaced the roof and floors and did a ton of maintenance - that’s a great point Given my field if I leav -
Golf and retirement go together like biscuits and gravy so I’m looking for your input I’m reaching a work situation where I have a choice to either dive into a new job or tap out and work on my chipping - the trade offs are obvious - less money vs more time Lots weighing on my mind; including watching some of my older friends having to give up the game but also watching my older siblings get nervous about pinching pennies in retirement So, I ask the Get Off My Lawn crowd - what say you?
