bump
I think I’ll become a pimp.
Large house, lots of bedrooms now that the kids are gone.
I’m a big guy and have an old cane. I can get the Mrs. to make a fur lined cape.
I do worry if a house of ill repute would violate the HOA rules. Have to check first.
After I retired the whole point of a part time job was to get me OUT of the home and meeting people.

I know a gent who drives rental cars from point a to point b, usually between cities.
Gets him out of the house a couple days of the week and he likes the drive time.
bump and book mark.
I tried to become a gigolo after I retired.
Damn near starved to death.
I wanna start a Foundation and be able to violate laws too without getting in trouble. Like Killary.
Or maybe claim I’m an Indian, like Fauxchahontus, and qualify for all kinds of bennies to start, maybe, a casino.
I grow hay. In a good year I can break even!
Warning. Social Security “benefits” will be taxed if you earn “too much”. Plus you get to pay self-employment tax if you have a business. Plus your medicare premiums will rise if you earn “too much” money.
The current system sucks, and punishes those with a lifetime of skills that they can put to good use.
Thank you, democrats and republicans.
Monday morning is still hard, though.
DH, now in landscaping and automatic irrigation, looks to a future in which drones will be the mainstay. He feels there is a lot of potential business in this industry which will be ripe for the taking.
Myself, perhaps a sleep clinic testing pillows or bed heights. Will settle for a position in which being able to watch movies and television is an attribute.
Don’t need income but needed something to do after unexpectedly retiring from medicine due to health issues. The irony, it burns.
Woke up one morning with a plot and a desire to write. Never had a thought about writing before.
Wrote the first three books in about a year and of course made no money to speak of.
Am in the process of finishing the fourth which should be out in a few months. Don’t expect to make any money on it either but the writing has improved and my beta readers like it and describe it as a page turner....hope springs eternal.
I don’t recommend writing as alternative income. The business is cutthroat and the competition is fierce. Thousands will enter, few will win.
RE Agents. Wife and I are retired peace officers running RE Company from home. Our four associates don’t have to cover the office.
What do I do when I retire?
Pffft, that’s easy!
Ahemmmmmm!!!
“Welcome to Walmart!” :-)
Nice try. I retired from Retail. If I never have to deal with another whining, complaining, self-involved human being again, who is convinced that everything wrong in their life is MY fault, it will be TOO SOON for me!
This does not include immediate family, friends & FReepers. :)
This this mean I can become a ‘pajama grandpa?’
Many at-home-business concepts will soon become very competitive, because we will find younger people who are being displaced by the increased use of software programs and robotics. Even high level jobs, such as being a trader of Stock Options or Portfolio Management are often being surrendered to systematic predictions based on history, not personal human reaction. That simply means an older adult must become resourceful and use the advantages of what they have personally observed over time. There are still many different ways to compile, tailor and utilize data.
What do I do when I retire? A little fishing, some fishing, more fishing, and then some more fishing.
