A lot of people over 40 are burdened - kids, soccer practice. My wife and I at 49/50 are empty nesters, I “retired her” at 44 she is pursuing her passion projects, I work remotely and we are always traveling, gone for extended periods. We are also gym rats. We have friends that join on us our trips when they can. But no one in our cohort has the complete freedom of movement that we have. The older retired people that have the freedom we have are too (small “c”) conservative and don’t have to deal with us and I am not about to use a filter when I go on vacation or hanging out. We also have friends where one works remotely. But the other still has to be in an office. We kind of have to live our lives to our own music. My parents are 80 and 82 and they are independent now. But I realize the day is going to come where we’re going to have to responsibilities for awhile. |
