Default Do what's best for you

We stopped working at 52 and 51. Was it a risk? Yes it was but we are glad we did and haven't looked back. Life is too short and gets shorter as we grow older. I also wanted some time in the sun and to enjoy life with no schedule or demands. I guess if I had a pension to think about and social security maybe I would have chose differently? But with no pension, and social security here sooner than I think, my decision was the right one for me. Good luck with your decision.
