Originally Posted By RoadTrip I would continue to live in Minnesota during the spring, summer and fall, but would by an RV and spend the winters at WDW's Fort Wilderness.

I'm a born vacationer! There's so many places that I want see and go to that I know that's what I'll end up doing. At least I hope its what I end up doing.

Originally Posted By MomofPrincess I agree with everyone, but let me just say that I'm trying to get in all the fun stuff I can NOW! You just never know what shape you'll be in by retirement age. (Hopefully we'll all be in GREAT shape, but there are no guarantees! Heck, there are no guarantees for 5 minutes from now - ya know?) I used to work in HR, and I'd see so many people retire -- with all of these plans to finally starting "living" in place -- only to die/become ill just weeks or months later. It was so depressing! My boss, who was only 59, died last year just 6 short weeks after retiring. My parents were both diagnosed with cancer just a month after retiring. See what I'm saying? So, although I think it's awesome - and important - to plan for the golden years, I'm not putting off ANYTHING that I can do TODAY!

I've seen some nice things but that thing floored me.

Originally Posted By smeeeko will there be a 'retirement' in like 20+ years?? assuming there were, SeanYoda & I have talked about doing the motorhome thing on the Alaska Highway..

I don't see it happening though.. however, Sean said if we ever get the opportunity to move to florida, we might RENT an Rv to take the cats on the road.. I guess it's too difficult to trank the furkids up and put them on a plane? (not that either will happen, but you never know!)
