Bored

After decades of looking
forward to retirement a surprisingly large number of people find
themselves bored to tears within months. Some go back to
work. Others decide to explore new and fun experiences and new places. After all, retirement from your
primary work is simply the beginning of a new, twenty year long
stage of your life. So don't waste your future being
bored. Start enjoying your new retiree life today.

Here are
some ideas to start having fun and meeting new challenges
today.
We also have many suggestions for retirement
jobs and extra cash work
on this website.
1. Write Your
Memoir. The most valuable treasure you can leave your
grandchildren and their grandchildren is the memories of your
life. Write about your own childhood, your teen years, how
you got your first job, how your life unfolded. |
2. Learn Tai Chi. No
doubt you have seen this ancient form of exercise which looks like
karate in slow motion. It is an excellent method to improve
your balance. With better balance you are less likely to
accidentally fall and break a bone. A bit of trivia: we recently heard in Beijing these days Tai
Chi classes held in the parks are a government requirement for
retirees. Search online for classes near you.
3. Gondola Ride.
A gondola ride in Venice, Italy is wonderful, romantic--and
expensive--particularly if you are paying for the vacation that
goes with the ride. Another choice is a romantic
gondola ride complete with champagne and a singing gondolier
through the canals and around the island of Naples in Long Beach,
California. Then you can bike or stroll along a 7 mile bike
path on the beach nearby or shop and dine on Second Street in the
nearby Belmont Shore neighborhood.
