Franklin's Story
I retired after 35 years with (what used to be the Bell System) Qwest Communications in Tucson, Arizona. My wife and I moved to the Denver Colorado area (Aurora). Tucson was just too hot in the summer.
I stayed at home and tried to relax for about six months then tried the consulting thing. I contracted for about 2 years then finally accepted a position back with Qwest in my previous job function but, with slightly different job responsibilities. I'm now collecting m...Expand for more
y pension, taking a distribution from my personal retirement account and recieving a full salary from my position at Qwest. Life is good and I've always enjoyed my work.
The moral here is to make sure that you're really ready to retire when you make that move. I didn't have a real plan and probably would have realized that I wasn't ready had I attemped to really plan it out.
My wife, kids and grandkids are the center of my life. They put things in perspective for me.
