Thanks man.

I have had long conversations about this and it seems lots of folks try to talk me out of it but never really have a compelling reason. I do understand why my Mother/Father-In-Law are concerned but most folks just say "Why? Your too young".

First, I should clarify, I am retiring from being an executing will try different work that appeals to me to earn some extra money. One of my good friends is a financial planner in New York. When he asked me why, I showed him the list of all of the realistic things I wanted to do and work did not crack the top 50.

I also spoke to folks who went down the same path and almost all of them said it was the best decision they made. They said the first year is an adjustment because you have to make decisions on what you can and cannot afford to do but they said that once you get through the adjustment period, you not only dont miss the money, your not even sure what you spent it on. They also realized that when they were working, they spent lots of money on convinces, going out, flying business class, valet parking, really nice hotels. Many of them get to continue doing the things they love, just doing them on the cheap. Book in advance, fly coach, stay at cheap hotels.

It is a bit scary but I am looking forward to it.
