For those thinking about retirement — have you ever wondered what life will feel like when work is no longer part of your everyday routine?

We came across this interesting CNA commentary on one retiree’s first month after leaving a four-decade career:

“Who am I when the phone stops ringing? Lessons from my first month of retirement”
https://www.channelnewsasia.com/com...-identity-meaning-phone-stops-ringing-6298296

One part stood out:


We often prepare financially for retirement, but what about the sense of purpose and routine that work gives us?

For some, retirement means slowing down. For others, it could mean staying active through mentoring, volunteering, part-time or fractional work.

💬 If you’re approaching retirement, what would you want this next stage to look like?

And if you’re already retired — was the transition what you expected?
Another wash brain thread to work till u dye? Then might as well....

He should be under health watch when he is in the system.
Now, it is time to let go before he is gone.
Why not ?

Work is not an evil but in SG it appears so because of the financial stressors.

  1. Slow down. Smell the flowers. Maintain healthy lifestyle.
  2. Take care of parent.
  3. More time to pursue own hobbies and learn more things.
  4. More time for spiritual cultivation.
  5. In short, 做愛做的事。
There are so many things to do and fill the days. Definitely not sitting there, stare at the ceiling and waiting for dementia to set in.
