Post retirement was helped along by being rehired in a reseash position and I conducted field trials for 9 years and established a small business as well.

Financially we were ok, we had debt in line and my 401/IRA was solid and I had a great financial guy guiding that process

Key for us was to watch expences and plan our spending in line with income.

Do what you like and have fun. You earned it.

Congrats on your your retirement...financially we are OK and my wife is a nudge when it comes to keeping under our budget.

We will live in a manner that allows us to be comfortable but not extravagant. We are debt free....so that helps and luckily both of us worked thru the pandemic so no loss of income.
