I had planned to work through 2007, during which I would be 62. I figured Social Security, my 401K, and company retirement plan would be sufficient. Came here to look around during a visit to Sarasota, and decided this was the place for us. When our agent found a home with the features we wanted and we bought it, I still planned on retiring after 2007. One night at about 4AM, my wife asked how much more we would have to retire going through 2007 versus October 2006. I went to the website for our retirement plan and discovered I would only gain about $8K total. I called the chief of service the next morning and told him October 2006 was it. Best move I ever made. Don't miss the BS at all.
