I started watching & visiting TV when I was sub-40. Every time I visited or did a Life Style, I couldn't wait to get here full time. We purchased prior to the magical 55 and have never regretted it. We are here, we are traveling and we have done "much" and continue to do "much". Our children visit and want to move here and skip their career years. I for one (throw in my Bride for two), totally understand people not waiting until the ripe old age of 70 to come here.
