Football This is the way to retire

Hydrae · 11-01-2018, 07:56 AM

After 53 years coaching at the same school, the coach walks off into the sunset in style.

Got an email from a coworker at 2:52 am that she was retiring effective today.

That baby, is the way to go.

I figured I'd have to work until the big dirt nap. Turns out that the wife's business is doing so well, I can retire next summer. I'll be 51

Good for you! I went (the 1st time) at 52 after 31 years. The only problem I had was that I got antsy and went back twice, just for the heck of it. There's only so much golf you can play when everyone else is working - lol.

I've never retire (not by choice); or, if I do, i'll die at my desk the last day on the job.

She got drunk Halloween night, found some good dick and realized there was more to life than that shitty job.

Too bad you didn't have enough time to find a hobby other than golf.

I shut off the corporate lights at 53 and never looked back. Best decision ever.

Find something you love to do that makes a shit ton on money and you can at least die at your desk happy.

This dude didn't retire... He quit, midseason, during a game, it was all about him... not a good lesson for young men and puts a stain on his legacy.

**Rain Man** · 11-01-2018, 10:09 AM

He retired during a game, while losing a game, incurring a penalty, and confusing people about what was going on. That's not really how I'd like to go out.

He could have at least had the class to retire at halftime of the 3rd game off the season.

**Bowser** · 11-01-2018, 10:18 AM

Thought this was going to be about the person(s) that won the 1.6 billion mega millions.

BWillie · 11-01-2018, 10:21 AM

I think young people should retire from 22-38. Get loans, travel the world, have as much fun as possible, then settle down, get a job, look straight ahead and wait to die.

My goal is to die with negative equity and no money in my pocket. Once I acquire enough currency Im never going to do anything I dont want to do ever again. Ive calculated I need 2.2M to do that at my current age - assuming I can live until Im 68. Money wont matter yo me after that anyway - Ill just sit in a chair watching Matlock or fantasizing about Angela Landsbury or something
