    We “repurposed” at 55. No more corporate craziness. Went to Tech College and learned HVAC. Now I can fix the Heat and AC for single moms, the elderly and other people on a tight budget. We don’t need the money so most of it is free or just my cost of equipment. We are God’s handiwork, created for good works in Christ

      @dawsonsschittcreek5395 3 года назад +4

      There is such thing as a disability retirement for law enforcement for various federal/state/local agencies. If you are hurt in the line of duty, and it is deemed a permanent injury where you can no longer perform your duties (as in the case with the caller), you would receive a pretty decent portion, even up to 100%, of your pension as if you worked your full 20-25 years. So not "suspect" at all, just lack of knowledge on your part!

    If dont need the money then go do a job thats fun. My first job was working at the movie theater and that has been my favorite job out of every one ive had. If money didnt matter, I might go back to working at one or maybe buy a small one. Theaters these days are overpriced, serve bad food and dont show the best movies. To be fair there arent too many great ones coming out these days. And yeah their chairs have gotten better but still they use that as an exuse to jack up the price.
    Point is if you dont need the money, do something you love. My uncle retired at 60-70 area. He had so many health issues. The guy decided to work at a golf place. The guy loves golf. His health improved, he smiles more. I have never seen him glow so much. And its been a few years since he started and he still looks better than when I saw him in his 40-50s. Do a small job that you find fun. You will not regret it.
