They do not need to be talking any cr@p about someone who put their life on the line for us disabled or not. Many did not make it back and all took that risk. I do not see how anyone living in a Free Country can act like they do not owe our Freedom to them. Thank you for your service and enjoy your Retirement. And as for how much money he or anyone else makes in Retirement some are saying he gets too much and others saying he is a broke @zz. Really none of our business we all do best we can. I am retired and I am Comfortable and have everything I need and want. Certainly would not call it Rich. With that said if I had more money I could probably find a way to spend it.

Thanks Vern! I have been working my a.s.s off, especially with the wood cutting. I have been making a little time for fun. I went to the County fair last night & watched the tractor pulls. Today I went to look at a 33 ford roadster for the boss lady. Hoping to make it to the track this weekend. Other than that enjoying time with dad. BTW, using my phone with limited service sucks.

My knee replacement is a whole lot better so yesterday I pulled the trigger and entered Indy. Should have gone to Montana because I need the grade points but I thought what the hell. I last ran Indy in 1975. At least that's when I think it was. ![]() Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right. Here I am....... | |||

Yeah, I'm pretty aggressive. No wife, no kids, I'm comfortable enough with the risks. I'm doing well at 55, 401k value is over 11x my salary. The big question mark I have is how soon can I afford health care on my own. I'll be looking into that soon, to have an idea of what I'll need.

Chuck, sound like you are on the right track. The only thing I wanted to do before retiring was putting 75 percent of my pay in the 401 for the last year. As for the health care. My accountant buddy wished he would of retired early. He found a plan that meets his needs & said it was reasonable. 1980 Camaro Taking the Best Working Small Tire Shyt Box & making it Greater Than Before! ![]() 3050 lbs.

Been in MI. going on 3 weeks tomorrow & have 2 more weeks of work/fun. Using my phone for post sure does suck, that's why I limit my post here. Anyway, I have been all over MI, OH & IN. The plan for next year's trip is to stay for 2 months. I might bring more than one toy to race with next year. Plenty of racing in July & August in MI & the neighboring states. 1980 Camaro Taking the Best Working Small Tire Shyt Box & making it Greater Than Before! ![]() 3050 lbs.

6 pages of "Early Retirement" comments, and the beat goes on. My working days ended at 60 that was 21 years ago, in a way it was sort of "accidental" as in pile driving a race car into a wall at Las Vegas. I loved my job Monday was the best day of the week for me. When that ended I was fortunate enough to be married to a wonderful woman and had accumulated some income property to supplement my monthly Social Security check. My racing days were actually pretty much over but it just took me a while to understand that and adjust. I still run the car just not at NHRA events I do understand that I will never be competitive and that's OK. My two older sons are very competitive in TD and TS and I enjoy traveling with them to NHRA Divisional and National events. All this said enjoy the moments that happen when you do retire, travel or do whatever your income will allow. Apologize for nothing and sail your own ship wherever it takes you. Bob | |||

As usual I look forward to dad's & my birthday towards the end of the month. It has always been very special for us to share the same birth date. He will be 82 & I will be 60. We will have our annual banana split on or near our birthday. ![]() 1980 Camaro Taking the Best Working Small Tire Shyt Box & making it Greater Than Before! ![]() 3050 lbs.
