‘During my days as an advisor, I assisted many clients in planning, preparing and organizing their life for retirement,’ says this retiree who has no plans to go back to work

In 2010, I had a bout of prostate cancer. I had it removed, and fortunately, it hasn’t spread. Part of my decision to retire was due to that health issue. It was a bit scary, and I felt like there were many things I wanted to do in life that didn’t involve work, so there was no time like the present. I also wasn’t really enjoying my second career as a stockbroker.
I think it’s important to stay healthy, in mind and body, in retirement and to stay socially connected. My wife and I are very active; we play tennis, swim, cycle, hike, and garden. We also take our son’s dog on long walks a few days a week. I also learned how to play the guitar in retirement. I’m still an amateur, but it’s fun and something I can continue learning. I’m also reading more now that I’m not working. It’s nice to have the time to dig deeper into different subjects.
I travelled extensively internationally for many years in several of my jobs, and my wife and I continue to travel in retirement. We were in New Zealand recently and then spent Christmas in Tasmania , where my daughter lives with her husband.
