Don’t forget the benefits of gardening.
Gardening : #1 hobby in the U.S.A. Gardening provides me with so much great to do: Learning, meeting new people, sharing ideas, creating beautiful settings, and digging! I stay away from growing vegetables and focus on flowers, shrubs, and other plants. Humming birds have found me, too!

I learned French in retirement, and that activity has changed my life. As you said, it’s a very stimulating mental experience, but it also enormously enhanced my travel experience. Going to France and having many conversations with locals, including B&B hosts is so much more rewarding and fun than just being a typical tourist. I’ve even made some real friends in the process. It’s definitely possible for an old adult to become fluent in another language, but it requires a lot of consistent effort and patience. The reward is substantial, however.
James, you are an old soul and I so enjoy all of your content. Thank you.
I hit the retirement ground running; camping, fishing, kayaking, hiking, rock hunting. I took up fly fishing and learned how to tie flies by you tube. The winters can be long and tedious as I’m not a winter sports fan so i took up substitute teaching. Started going to the fitness center; i met a whole new group of people some of whom are now friends. I continued being a youth mentor and i stay busy with various ministries in my church. I travel some to see family and friends. I thought I would read more when I retired but I’ve been too busy. I’m finally learning to say no as I frequently get asked to be involved with something. There’s so much to do in retirement. I’m not looking back. Looking forward to the next event, activity, adventure.
Excellent content & great presentation. Thank you for sharing
Great video; thank you James
Excellent video. Thank you, James.
Great video! Thank you
Thank you for the ideas. Love hearing what you have to say. Really appreciate it. I’m ready to retire and always aim to travel.
Wow! I truly appreciated your list. While I did spend the first few years of my retirement primarily on the couch (I wanted to rest and coast), it got old. I found that it's important to have goals, even in retirement. Your list rechallenged me. Thanks!
Great video. Helped me put things into perspective. Although I already do a lot of these, I did not think of the others. Listening to your videos has changed my life. Husband and I put our 5 year plan and excited on aiming to a date. Thank you so for changing our lives and reminding us of what is important. Live life to its fullest with a meaning.
Thanks for those inspiring ideas for getting people like me engaged: I will retire next year and will be, for sure, the oldest student at a public university in Madrid next spring semester.
I retired in August. Took up pickleball in September. Switched to deer hunting in October through now. Traveling in late November and again in January. After that....TBD, but probably back to pickleball....it's all good!
Hey James, I just turned 64 years old and I've been working as an engineer for the Federal Government for last 44 years. I feel that I'll retire within the next 4 to 6 months. I have some uncertainties as to what I'm goings to do after I retire. I appreciate your suggestions. It's all good. Keep making those cool videos.
The link at top right at the end didn’t work. FYI.
Indeed, the key is to retire TO something. That’s where I’m at. It’s not scary necessarily, but it is something I need to figure out. Great topic.
Golf ⛳️!
Hi Mr Conole, could you pleasse talk about the pros and cons of retiring to a different country perhaps at age 62. Best regards,
Was the monochrome intentional?
Is this filmed in a smokey room? 😎
there is no reason to take weekend trips when you are retired. Midweek trip are less crowded and generally better rates.
Ok, now do it for real life…. The 60% of people that have no spare money, and whose health is declining rather than that of one of the avengers.
