    I'm trying to retire in no more than 10 years from now.

    Stay active and moving...you are harder to hit that way.

    Its nice to be able to work as many or as few hours as you would like. Too many times have I seen good people wither and become weak when they retire just to do nothing. Don't start your dirt nap early.

    Remember back when I was building the brick columns in front of your park. Working all by myself wishing I had some help. It's what 7 years later and I still have no help lol. Ever wanted to be a part time hod carrier?

    As long as there is a lottery, I still have hope to retire some day.

    Lottery and gambling is the reason a fair number of older persons aren't already retired. Compounding interest is your friend when you are young.

    Saving is a never ending battle. I think the biggest thing i wish i would have researched is loans. My parents never had to take out student loans because they never went to college so they weren't there for advice and i was young and didn't worry about paying on them when i was in school. Now that i have been out of college since 2008 and im still paying on student loans its near impossible to save. Student loans, house payment, truck payment, two kids in daycare, and credit card debt...im not sure how some people do it. Im thankful for a wife with a great job and me with a decent job! We make it work. But life is definitely expensive.

    Too many early years of roofing and construction have taken their toll on these bones and joints. I'm lucky I'm able to do what I'm doing at Lowes P/T.
    Thanks for the thought though.

    Small world we live in. I'm building columns and this guy who lives there talks to me about the job for a minute out of the blue. Low and behold he's on Coloradoar15forum and his name is staglefty.
