Yes but I managed a 7 person team. We did everything from automation, electronic health record, managed a $40 million inventory, 340B account, bar code medication scanning and controlled substance ordering, auditing and inventory. I hired them all personally and were the best group of people I ever worked with. Truly a team. |

Fortunately I enjoy what I do for my employer so most of it is not really "work" although there is a lot of Corporate Bullshit I could easily do without. My plan is to ride this wave as long as I can stand it and then continue to to the "fun" parts (sans the BS) after I retire.

I got bounced out at 48. Did consulting and looked for a full-time job for 4 years, then gave up the consulting and continued to look for a full-time job for another 5 years, never found one. At 57, I gave up, and just said "I'm retired." Congrats Jughead! In my experience, unless you want a private jet, or a new Ferrari every years or something like that, you should be good to go financially! ![]() |

You already have plenty of money. Start enjoying it. A larger bank account is just that. It may look great but it's doing nothing for you. Then again, when you die, your wife can throw a printed copy of your bank statements in the coffin with you and then SHE can enjoy what the money can do for her. Perhaps she'll think of you as she looks at the ocean in Spain with her new boy toy.

I retired in 2022 at age 61. Losing that regular paycheck was scary and took several months to realize we are really ok financially. After years of saving money that can’t be touched, it was strange to start drawing from it. The other big change is being home full time. For 26 years, I was traveling for 2 weeks every month. Now the wife occasionally asks if I have a trip coming up. Bottom line is I’m glad I retired when I did. As others have said, time is really flying by and none of us know our expiration date or how long we’ll enjoy good health.
