There's an additional problem though. What if you've found a type of work that you do find meaningful and interesting, but you just don't want to spend 40 hours of your week doing it, now that you "don't have to". It's hard to fit back into working life if you only want to do it, say, 20 hours a week. Some part time jobs exist, but they're the exception.

That's where I am currently. I don't mind working and enjoy it often times, but I don't have need to work for financial reasons. Finding ways to serve as an advisor/consultant doing meaningful work less than full time is REALLY difficult in my experience.
