Heed the warning tsp'ers, if your a reatreater don't even think about it!
Don't make same mistake I made retire at mid to late 70's for several reasons.
First all uncertainty bout social security,and economy collapse housing collapse that's one thing.
Most upmost of importance is 24/7 retreater avoiding the masses for lines inconvenience parking traffic.
Having not one solitary thing you must do of any real importance, except getting letter from I.R.S. stating you owe tax.
Phone you can throw that out too if you had little family few aquaintances during 33 years of work guarantee your phone wont ring.
Doorbell solicitors will be only ones ringing it.
If you have a lawn you can watch it die.
When your wife or girlfriend realize your part of the furniture, they'll always find an excuse not to be around.
Vocabulary will decrease as you forget words and don't talk enough to remember them.
Muscles all want to ache back, arm, toe ect.
Your new friends will become things not humans toilet, sink, water glass, refrigerator, toaster oven ect.
The only connection to the outside world you will have is windows your P.C. and T.V.
Hermits, penny pinchers, reatreaters get by pretty good as long as you can drive to a workplace for 8 hours retire and your whole existence shrinks to a millimeter of non existing.
Choice is your you've been forwarned
