Or do you not intend to? Or have you already? Retirement is coming up for me in a few years, so I'm considering my options.

I can’t even conceive of that. I’d sit and rot until I died. I’ll be working in some capacity until death.

The trick is to work for yourself instead of for someone else. This is what hobbies are for obviously those can be difficult to achieve under the current system of work for literally every goddamn fucking hour of your life other than sleep and eating but I assure you there is plenty of fulfillment to be found doing something for yourself and sometimes depending on what it is you find a passion for you can even turn it into a little side hustle job to make some extra money

I'm afraid that I've never had a hobby, I don't derive pleasure from the completion of tasks. Work is the only thing I really do.
