Snarley Bill Posted January 9, 2015 #1 Posted January 9, 2015 well i got retired from my job this morning. what a shock. they cut the night shift and i am officially home permenantly to harass my wife. this is my second retirement, so i guess it will be my last. time to tighten the belt and enjoy these so called golden years. lots more time to work on the 2015 rally.
bongobobny Posted January 9, 2015 #2 Posted January 9, 2015 Gee Bill, sounds like a mix of good/bad news! The extra money is nice, but so is retirement...
SilvrT Posted January 9, 2015 #3 Posted January 9, 2015 Well that sux ... sorta. Hope you got some kind of severance. I'm grateful I have a good position with a company that doesn't want to see me go so I keep extending my retirement date. Besides, might as well keep working and bringing in the bucks as long as I'm able to.
Snarley Bill Posted January 9, 2015 Author #4 Posted January 9, 2015 well i just turned 72, and it was getting to be time. got an unbelievable severence. a good friend of mine owns the business. the honey dos have started already.
cowpuc Posted January 9, 2015 #5 Posted January 9, 2015 CONGRATS BILL!!!!!!!!! Hope you and your wife take full advantage of the retirement you worked hard for!!!!!
Eck Posted January 9, 2015 #6 Posted January 9, 2015 Congrats Bill. Hope you two take some time off and go see the world some more now.
eusa1 Posted January 9, 2015 #7 Posted January 9, 2015 sent you a pm bill, reply to my e-mail royalstarventure03@yahoo.com
BlueSky Posted January 9, 2015 #9 Posted January 9, 2015 Congratulations! I'd say 72 is a good age to retire. You never have enough money to retire. You could always use more for that motorhome or traveling in style. It's one of those things you just do. I hope to get to the International to meet you in person.
djh3 Posted January 10, 2015 #10 Posted January 10, 2015 Well sorry to hear about the job. But it sounds as though you are taking it in stride. Mine was up Dec 31st on a company "reorganization". So have not decided what I'm going to do as of yet. Heavens knows my military retirement wont keep me afloat.
GeorgeS Posted January 10, 2015 #11 Posted January 10, 2015 First thing to do is sign up at the local gym, this will give you a couple hours a day away from " honey dew projects " !!! Also, keeps you well fit, for " Long Rides " !!!!! into the future !!!
Hummingbird Posted January 10, 2015 #12 Posted January 10, 2015 I think congratulations is the right thing to say even tho it wasn't voluntary. I'll be 72 the 30th of this month, been retired for 10 years and it's been the best 10 years of my life
MikeWa Posted January 10, 2015 #13 Posted January 10, 2015 Bill View this as a new opportunity. It's time to take the time to enjoy life. Wishing You All The Best Mike
