Work isn't meant to be fun. It's a means to an end. When I'm 57, possibly earlier if my investments do better than I'm anticipating, I will be done with work and set until I'm 105, making as much per month as I do now.
My financial advisor recommends having 80% of what you make/month but I like having 100%. With the wife's pension, we'll actually be making more per month than we do now, combined (she has a killer pension).
We'll be living the good life, retired early. Meanwhile, you have to work past retirement. I feel bad for your family; more interested in your own interests rather than them. You planning on saddling them with your funeral costs when you're gone as well?
