Thanks a bunch!

Are you newly retired or have you been for over 10 years? 10+

What is your life like compared to how it was before? Better

What challenges do you face? Health, aging

What are the benefits? Independence

If you could change anything, would you? Probably could have saved more

Would you still retire at the same point if you could go back and do it again? Yes

What advice do you have for younger generations about retirement? It is never too early to start planning. Pay off credit card balance every month. Borrow only when absolutely necessary.

Thanks for your help!
Hope this helps.
