How are you OLD FOGIES planning retirement?

My goal is to retire comfortably in ten years. That means that the savings plan is going to be ramped up, and Our Beloved Leader is going to have to agree to realize that the money that I earn is mine. Otherwise, I might just have to retire in ten years, and not be quite so comfortable. I am fairly certain that I can fairly easily live on about $5k a month in current dollars, with my house paid off, my truck paid off, etc. I could actually probably get it down to $3k, pretty easily. In order to do that, I am going to have to make sure that I am getting a pretty consistent return on my investment.

Or, I could go down and live in a van by the river...

Retirement

I for one have 2-pensions (Sheriff & Military) so each month if I do nothing, I still bring in $45,000 a year. My wife also works and brings in about $43,000. I love to meet customers and do Pressure Washing so that is why I do it. As far as retiring for good, we have worked it out when both my wife and I reach social security age, we will have 5-Pension checks coming in per month. Oh did I mention, I paid cash for my home and do not have a car payment? I did be sure to obtain medical & dental insurance for the family. I think when I reach social security age I will just sell all my Pressure Washing equipment and the plan is to buy a 1934 Ford Hot Rod and join the local car club. I also golf one to 2-times per week and every once and awhile I will go fishing to help me relax from my stressful life. Take care! Hugh
