In my dreams I have a boatload of fun!

In my dreams I’m collecting my Lotto winnings

Is that next to Berry’s Department Store? ;-)

In my dreams, I am still working and I retired in 2003!

My hope was I would win a lottery and retire. I never won one but I did retire.

In my dreams, I have no dreams so wherever I am is where I am supposed to be!

About to celebrate 14 years of not working come Nov 1st.

My dream: Born to wealth and royalty but not be as stupid as Charles.

I’m retired so you’d think I’d be living my dream. But I have a Honey-Do list.

In my dreams I’m winning millions of dollars.then driving in a red Lamborghini.speeding down the highway while blasting the sammy Hagar song I can’t drive 55.

I believe the real American Dream is to be wealthy enough not to have to work.

Right??

I’m living Cosmo’s dream.

in real life cosmo doesn’t work…

Hey Cosmo, does that dream include eating?

One thing about retirement; the hours are great but the pay sucks.

I can still remember that first morning of retirement – no alarm clock waking me up, turning over for an extra five minutes, cup of tea in pyjamas. Well, you get the drift.

I don’t work except for hobbies since 2006!

Spending other people’s money is fun.. tis why there are so many wanting to get into politics.

after his 2nd drink, Dad intoned, ‘Never retire..downshift.’

This reminds me of some of the comments when my wife died in March, Heaven “needed” a pet groomer. How would that be Heaven, to have to “keep” working for all of eternity after doing it while alive.

Shoe thinks Cosmo’s dream and his reality are the same thing.

And get paid a lot.

Retirement has allowed me to live some of my dreams. I have been a teacher, a motorcycle rider(did this before I retired), and sailed the oceans. My dream of winning the lottery, so far, hasn’t worked out!

If you like what you are doing, whether getting paid or not, it’s not work ….

In my dream, Covid never happened.

I was at a seminar and the speaker asked members of the audience if you have one job, what would you do. People gave some pat answers—retired, movie star, lottery winner, etc…..when he got to me I stopped him cold—I said I would like to be a philanthropist—in 10 years he had never had anyone say that. So he asked why—-First you have to have access to a lot of money and they have the satisfaction of helping others. We have only taken this up with our kids and grand-kids but it is still very satisfying!

My dream job has already happened.
