I retired just after my 56 birthday. I had a health issue that really kept me going back. I got approved for SS disability and that along with my pension it made it doable. My wife is still working but as a nurse she can go most anywhere. My health care is $210 a month and I had a 401k that I flipped to an IRA. Have never had a finance guy and we still own a house up north that is worth something. We get to Florida when we can, stay up north and soon will be using our camper and boat. Health aside, life is good and retirement is great.
