Play on computer.  Make things which were once chores into leisure.  Like, gardening, painting.  You now have time to enjoy doing those things because your not rushed.  If you can afford it take some trips, and don't hurry home. Just relax and enjoy watching the clouds go by, you have earned the right!

If you can, find another way to pay off your credit card debt.  Of course, this is assuming that you're not about to go bankrupt or anything.  It sounds like you're not, as you are moving into a new home.  Don't borrow from your retirement, as that will start a bad habit.  It'll make it easier to do again and again, and then you'll be left with no money for retirement.

Try to get a job in the medical field. As an asst administrator, senior citizen rec leader, whatever. Reason is the population is aging, and soon a quarter of the country's population will retire reaching 65 years old. Those are the baby boomers born 1945 to 1964.

If they have sufficient source of income after retirement, they may keep themselves buzy in the communinity by operating  a time binding small scale tution center to educate youngers in the light of their vast experience of life. They may also rent out a portion of their house preferably to any of their children who are self defendant because this will of course creat a conception of a sound  joint family. It will be better than to live alone. They should not consider themselves as 'retired personnel' becuase the word 'retirement' is an initial stage of diseases. Pay my regards to them.\n\nWith best wishes\nM. Husen

Sit back, watch your game, kiss half of your salary and your pension bye bye along with the house you live in, hope you like little one room apartments and be prepared for your children to hate you since you care so little about them.\nOh and get a vasectomy.

In a fore gone era, people could work at one company and retire with a comfortable retirement fund. Are the retirement plans of today as assured as those in the past? I will compare the old with the new and talk about how Cash Balance Plans improve retirement security for todays workers.

Oh I so identify with you! My Dad retired after 30 years also, and then I only had him around before he passed away with a heart attack just a year afterward. So here's what I recommend: "Dad I want to applaud your long years within the Military. Although you won't be wearing a uniform any longer, I'll always think of you as the hero that you are, first to me, setting an example and teaching me responsibility; second to our country, going into harm's way making sure that those values I learned from you were available to everyone; and thirdly to the generations that arise from you for the future. I hope that you will always remember how your work has influenced my life, and given me opportunities. Happy retirement, Dad, I love you."

To keep it simple: Better safe than Sorry.\n\nYour money/finance and all related stuff just depends. For myself, I am trying to come up with my own monetary ideas but since anything is possible it is best to always have some kind of back up plan. Typically your retirement money (enlisted) is not a WHOLE lot (granted you do get benefits) so anything else you do to provide your self with more money is a plus.

You better start thinking of getting together your accrued pension benefits and transfer it to your new job.\n\nElse, you can hire some goons who have a skill for tying fingers together.

For your skills, you might also want to look at computer programming, project management, marketing, and sales type jobs in your product area of expertise.\n\nIf you want to work in a retirement community, I would recommend looking of someplace like Monster.com to find out the types of jobs there are in a retirement community.  Then you can look into what you need to get a job that looks good to you.

Find what you like to do, then research where they will let you do it.  You can find any job in the govt.  Local and State is easier to get into then Federal.  Use them as stepping stones.  Try something for 3 years then decide if you can see yourself staying until retirement.  If not, find a different job.  Retirement usually transfers from one state job to the other.
