 Google, My Oracal

So I go to Googie and look up how to write a retirement plan, and I am given the definite

answer:


"How to Write a Retirement Plan"

  1. Get a handle on your current finances.

  2. Predict future expenses.

  3. Run the numbers.

  4. Start working your way there.

    “A common guideline is that you should aim to replace 70% of your annual pre-retirement income. ... You can replace your pre-retirement income using a combination of savings, investments, Social Security and any other income sources (part-time work, a pension, rental income, etc.).”

    Okay fine, but I was looking for something other than monetary security; how shall I pass my days?

    It is all about the cash baby, all about the cash, there are no helpful non-monetary plans as far as I can find, so I need to make one for myself:

    So I ask the question to myself, what is important to me in retirement, and I create this list…


  1. My health seems to be at the top of my concerns, I feel old.  I ache, my feet are sore and I just don’t have the energy that I once had.
  2. My inner artist wants to create poetry, take pictures, and play with creativity.
  3. I want to re-connect socially with people I don’t work with, people who do not share a common goal, a common light, uncommon people who just want to be themselves, with no financial strings attached.  We won’t get paid to work collaboratively.  
  4. I want some time to myself, to read my brain candied novels, to delve deeper into mysteries that I will never solve, but will spend time on anyway.  
  5. I want to see about increasing the affections I have for the people already in my life, maybe some will become closer to me.
  6. I want to go to view art, the creative expressions of others, perhaps there is a piece of creativity I can borrow, then make it my own.
  7. I might try helping a charity raise money for a worthy cause.  I have no idea what charity.  (Hugs for health care workers, Doughnuts for mechanics, Pillows for dreamers).  I’ll figure one out.
