in ten years I'll be 61, and the wife will be 48.

*hopefully* we'll be on the road and working as needed to support the lifestyle.

GRAVE DIG
well... it's 9 years later. I'm 60 and Kyria is 47.

we're living our (working) dream in the remote NT.

Who would of thought I'd still be self employed ten years later
Fysh has changed jobs, after working in a supermarket for nearly 30years.
We own our home, are debt free,
Own a caravan, camper trailer and swags, so we have all camping covered
Still have my 80 series, she has 517000km's on her now.
All but one child has left home, all have jobs, steady partners.
Happy Days.

Have you never watched Kath and Kim? ie "Mum - I want to be effluent - Kim you are effluent". It was an often used play on words ie Affluent / effluent.

Strewth - I thought everyone knew that one !!

Apparently not.

In 10 years I hope to be considering a redundancy if they come up at my place of work as that will mean Ive been there for 25 years and the pay out should see me through to super time.

Its a simple plan by a simple man :)

Yep a simple plan by a simple man........oh how life changes in 10 years but yes what I hoped for back then I am still hoping for now haha

I retired at the end of 2023 and have no regrets of doing it.  ;D I also don't conform to being a quiet pensioner and will say and do whatever the fork I want because I'm a stubborn bastard!  ;D  :cheers:

You only live once, so do whatever is within your mean and fork what anyone thinks of that!  :cup: :angel:

So long as you have tried your best, you should have no regrets.
