From another state
If you moved from another state to live in the Villages, what was your feeling. I seem to be overwhelmed with worry. Leaving a job, selling a house. I did not think this would happen to me. I know some of you are snowbirds, but would like to hear from the permanent residents. π³

Most of us land beautifully and find many similar traits in those around us and quickly assimilate into NOT going to work and learning new skills and enjoying not having to meet deadlines...here in this beautiful place, planned for grown up people. Good luck and Welcome HOME.

Thank you so much. My blood pressure has been a little high with what we want to do. I usually have normal blood pressure. I just took an early buyout with my job, I am 59. I was going to wait until at least 62. My husband is retired already. I see you a lot posting on this site and you always have such smart

You are close to your original retirement target date. You took an early out. You have probably done the math and financially you are set. Now is the time to sit back and decide what you want in your next phase.
Determine if you are coming to TV fulltime, or as a snow. Determine if you want to rent for a year or two or just jump in with both feet. Determine what you want in retirement......how active, how passive, how much travel......map it out. Once you have a map/plan, you might be able to enjoy this transition. Good Luck. You WILL love it. |

Full retirement didn't come until 2015 for one of us and the other is still working full-time . Since only one of us lives here full-time it doesn't seem that stressful More like a very long vacation. We spent lots of time with our financial advisor before we made any decisions. We have slowly moved stuff down taking our time since we still have our other home. Must have stuff first, and when there is no more room will sell everything else. TV is not for everyone and we made sure by renting it was the place for us. Of course we have also moved the normal 2.5 times in TV to different areas. |

I came here after working for my company for 41 years .I retired at 58 when I come here people said your only 58 why did you retired . I worked outside for all those years didn't work in a office had a very physical job that's why. couldn't afford to retire a live in Connecticut on my pension or be a snowbird owning 2 places. it's simple math if you can afford 2 places do it . everyone here has a different life style an it's all base on what you have at the end of the month in the checking account.mind is simple an I like it that way. family some people can't be away from family an it's usually one of the spouses that can't be away from the kids.you have all the answers figure it out together.

Don't Worry
We moved from California in 2015. Retirement and moving are stressful and overwhelming. Once you have a plan you might be more at ease. What is your biggest worry? You are in for a treat. TV is a wonderful place to be!
