Default Re: What was your profession prior to retirement? This is really interesting.

The "other career" I've had is writing 2 successful textbooks- they are on surgical instruments and supplies. Not destined to make Oprah's best seller list but successful enough to make owning a vacation (and in the future, retirement) home in TV a reality. All in all a rewarding career so far...
I heard someone with the same story say...., " I flunked retirement"
