Sweetie is still working at 70 because he wants to, although he retired from his corporate job several years ago and was rehired under contract. (He can continue on the internet and the airlines) I retired from owning my own business five years ago but still do a lot of ebay business selling dancewear.

Notice where 07 worked? In the DC area. When asked what she did she says something about records or documents, BUT.....notice the OH SEVEN part of her screen name?

She is so quick and smart and careful in her speech and did I say smart?, that I think she was a spy. Do you think she may still be working?

Oh. And nice too.

If you survived working and living in the Prince George, MD, Great Falls or College Park area of the DC subs, 50.5 feels like 67.5. Well deserved buyout, I'm sure.

laryb 08-06-2010 02:01 PM

me:55 wife: not yet

logdog 08-06-2010 02:28 PM

doubleujay1 08-06-2010 02:36 PM

43 - 1998 - But was forced due to disability because of botched surgery.

Tom Hannon 08-06-2010 02:38 PM

Should have done it sooner

ajbrown 08-06-2010 02:40 PM

Am I allowed to answer?
 
Currently 53 and still saving....

Although getting to do a job I enjoy for a company in MA while enjoying life in TV during the winter feels pretty good!

K9-Lovers 08-06-2010 03:01 PM

From our employers:
Mrs. K9: 50
Mr. K9: 52

But retirement didn't "take" as we started 2 businesses and worked harder than ever. 2nd retirement:

Mrs. K9: 55
Mr. K-9: 57

So, we decided to move to TV to take "retirement lessons" :D

spk7951 08-06-2010 05:22 PM

Me - 53
Wife - 51

l2ridehd 08-06-2010 05:56 PM

Wow, I was only 6. Oh that was ....

Retirement? 64 and still working full time. Thinking about it sometime soon, but I am still having fun working.
