Ah, the trouble with doing nothing is you do not know when you are done
my friend retired he started going stir crazy i told him to get a part time job not a high stress job just a couple days a week of doing something he didnt need the money but it made him happier to be around people.
it's never done, that's the beauty of doing nothing
now that you are retired you can make a hobby out of it
I mean doing nothing in more of a Zen way
just relax and enjoy where life takes you
wish you success in doing nothing
A job isnt everything ………theres getting fancy with cooking gardening getting a cat or a dog or even a bird. They will keep you busy.Pets re grat for retirees since they have more time. Then you could take a course at school and learn something new or a hobby whether its wood work or doing all the fixer uppers in the house or do renovations. Seriously theres always shit to do.
but why do you have to do it?
why do you always have to do something?
how about spending 3 days, all alone
no phone or internet and just be there with yourself
and just see what kind of crazy you are
could be very rejuvenating
Retirement requires imagination and self discovery. What have you always wanted to do and what makes you happy? For me it’s travel. I retired a couple years ago in my 40s and have been travelling the world for 6 months per year ever since. I would travel for the entire year if it wasn’t for the residency rules. My plan is to knock off one country at a time until 65 when I will have visited most countries. Currently in Malaysia, where I have spent the last month and it is Ramadan which makes it really interesting. I stay at a place until I get bored and I move on. My mindset has completely changed. Before everything would annoy me. Now if someone cuts in front of me, I just let it go. In a few days this guy will be back home in high stress environment and I have the rest of my life to do/go where I want.

how about running backwards while reading the paper?
I am learning about the 7 chakras. I play healing frequency music as I do special movements to release any bad energy from me. Ever talk to someone and they make you want to get the fuck away from them because everything that comes out of there mouth is negative or visious or they play victim. People like that are detrimental to ones health. My fmily stresses me out. Fake people stress me out .;iars stress me out. So instead of letting there venom boil in me i release it as many times in a day until at peace. I focus on myself i am alone and i got news for you the longer your alone the less you need a lot of people.plus im on touch with nature. I spend a couple hours outside when the suns outand absorb viitamin d.but why do you have to do it?

That's a sad way to look at the rest of your life.
So, get a life.
Do things you never had the time to learn… a hobby that isn’t this hobby!
Hit the gym, do yoga, go hiking, woodworking, learn a musical instrument, travel, go camping,
build something cool in your yard (pizza oven, outdoor kitchen… ), volunteer… just a few off the top of my head.
My 2 cents…

Enjoy the peace and quiet of being retired and not having to answer to anyone else but yourself. Ok maybe your wife if you're married. In fact I enjoy doing just that more than I can say but it's different for everyone. And if you wonder what to do, start with doing things on the home front that you never had time for when you were working. And then there's volunteering for any of the many services that rely on volunteers.
All sorts of options, just a matter of finding what works for you, including finding a part time job or going back to your original job on a part-time basis.

I retired mid-40s about 10+ years ago. This is what you do.
You wake up, go to a Rub & Tub for an hour/sometimes 90 minutes, go home, troll Reddit, and X ALL DAY and then write reviews about your favorite (now gone) Massage Parlor on TERB. Trust me, this will burn 2 years at least before it gets old.
THEN you can go see Escorts, meet some great people, try Sugaring and meet with more great people. You then realize with Sugaring most of the Sugar Baby's experience has been with men with no experience...so you're doing pretty good at 'satisfaction'.
...and THEN once you get down to your two favorite SBs with a few occasional favorite escorts, you join a gym. You have LOTs of time to exercise for HOURS so THEN you can piss off all the young, in-shape, beautiful people that are trying to make that #1 in the gym ranking. But they're not, cause you are.
Enjoy retirement! It's not work, trust me.
sorry, but 99.9% of people are fake. Very few people live genuine lives and are true to themselves. Everyone is afraid to be judged. How many times have you said something you didn’t believe but was something that you thought the other person wanted to hear? I‘ve done it plenty in my career trying to be a “team player’ when deep down inside I thought…man this is so stupid. Even people with serious FU money like celebrities will go on camera and fake cry when they screw up. On the opposite side is someone like Elon who will go on an analyst call, tell the analyst that his question is stupid and move on to the next question.
