No smoking, little to no alcohol, some exercise, and some interaction with people and an enormous amount of KZfaq. Too much interaction with humans can also be detrimental to your health. The main reason i absolutely Love Love Love KZfaq is because of my choice to be with who i want to be with and what i want to expose myself to. I love my KZfaq Family. Been addicted for about 15 years.

As for living in the past I started getting ready to retire about five years ahead. I got a motorcycle, went camping again, started visiting my kids and hiking. After my wife passed I moved states to get better situated for those activities. Walking in the woods is my main exercise. Now, at 76 I’m still looking forward to every day.

I retired with my hubby early (he was 58 & I was almost 51) we traveled for 12 years in our motorhome around the US - seeing new things, making new friends, new experiences,... Now we just resettled in our "final" home where we're comfortable and now enjoy our next phase of retirement! But we're not juat sitting in the proverbial rocking chair, we travel to new areas, make new friends & visit with old friends that come thru the area, attend local events,... We are content with the retirement life we chose!

I saw my parents retire with health problems. One of the things people forget is that the third act of life also typically involves chronic diseases. It's not just a question of financial burdens, it's also a quality of life issue. Maintaining a quality of life that you expect to have can be difficult simply because of chronic diseases many seniors face in the third part of their lives.

@RetirementTransformed 10 ай бұрын

Yes. According to Dr. Peter Attica, who wrote the book “Outlive”, the number one thing we can all do to increase our healthspan (The number of year we live but also the quality of those years) is exercise. We all really need to make this a priority as we age.

Excellent advise! I have been a widower now for 10 months and some days can be very challenging for me. At 75 I still walk at least 2 miles every day. I am very motivated to travel and continue to see the national parks and other fine areas of the country just like I did with my wife. And I know she would be happy that I can still get out my camera and find new experiences and meet people even if only small talk occurs. I am ok with that. There is I have found, a very fine line between freedom and loneliness. She is always with me in many ways no matter where I go now. Thank you for this video.

I'm 63 and semi-retired with my own home-based business that keeps me busy a few hours a day. What I'm finding is how important it is to have something on your calendar almost every day. It can be a household task like doing the laundry or cleaning, meeting with friends or family, shopping, taking a class, exercise, whatever. Waking up with absolutely nothing to look forward to is fun for awhile, but it gets boring. Now I just reserve one day a week for total rest and relaxation.

#1. Living in the past. Don’t say over and over, “I used to…”. #2. Don’t neglect your physical health. #3. Don’t avoid new technology. #4. Don’t set unrealistic expectations. Eg. Don’t expect to run a marathon, start by walking lots. #5. Stop resisting change. (Eg. Downsizing). #6. Don’t isolate yourself from others. Highest rate of suicides is with men 65+.

This couple is very down to earth, and real-personish. The tech is totally a necessity and well, joyous. Thank KZfaq ! When the weather permits, go outdoors so as to 'isolate' aloneness. Right, can never - necessarily - go by what was; yet, keep remembering those cumulatively learned lessons. Family and loved ones very quickly pass away. The next vid 'Retire Now' makes sense: My father was going to retire at 65; but, he died at 64 and 10 months ! Uncompromising Takeaway - As anybody who wakes up and lives ⏰️ at 60 +, the only boss to be accountable to is G-d.

I'm 58 and making my plan to retire at 60. I fantasize about having my whole day to myself instead of the daily grind at the office. My husband retired a couple of years ago and he told me to take the first year to figure out what my interests are before committing to anything. I think he is right in a way as I'm inclined to want to join every group and feel overwhelmed with responsibilities!

It’s a wonderful life, a lot of work. Happy work. Now after 11 years giving up all farm animals. Still grow a garden. Got involved with dog training and now going to dog obedience trials. New dog friends. Because we retired early our budget is not as robust as some. There is a book. Probably not still in print. “Get a Life” by Mark Cooper” It’s still available in online used book stores. Happy retirement ya all!

I'm extremely healthy but can see my body changing and I certainly can see the effect of age on others. So I'm facing reality. Planning to move to SE Asia next year to set myself up for when I might need help. A live-in housekeeper is $50-200/mo USD plus food. Fully trained live-in caregiver is $1000/mo. Plus as a single man it's very easy to find a great young female partner. World famous caregivers.

Thank you for sharing this. I think asking him to have a chat about how you want to spend the rest of your lives together would be a start. But it’s not easy. So go slow, be thoughtful, be a good listener. Set some ground rules for the chat. Everybody must listen and not interrupt the other. Reflect back what you heard. Take notes. Say thanks. Sit on what you both said and heard, then chat again in a week. The goal would to start finding some things you can do together as a way to spend some quality time and also work on your health together. Hope this helps.

Cronic loneliness is ok for me, been it all my life, works fine for me, so think it depends on who you are, changing my way of living as I get wiser, overweight and beginning gangren disappeared after realizing that human beings are designed to be carnivores and not eating artificial foods, processed oils, not a gram of sugar in my house anymore, the fructose part of it just as poisonous as alcohol.

There are a lot of people dying in their early to mid sixties, so it's not that young, the key is retire at 60, if possible

What if 60 and nothing saved for retirement?

@lisaward3890 11 ай бұрын

It is NEVER too late to start squirreling funds into a savings account or hidden in home safe. I know times are rediculously over priced on everything but it is still possible to save funds for retirement. If still working for an employer! If self employed may need to get creative to save funds! Self talk; i can do this!....then proceed to put a plan together that works out best for you! Alot of times planning ideas on paper helps! Especially for those people that are more visual! Kind of like a road map for gathering funds!
