Yes, most regret not finishing out once retired. It's a heck of a difference
in medical and income. Me, pending social security (holding out 1 more year
and will pull it the month before I hit 65), 1 retirement income (Nay), 1
Government civilian (small, was only one for 5 years), and Don's retirement and
social security. 350k TSPs, IRAs and 401k. 112k CDs, all but 4.8k of house
paid off (worth 278k). 10 years ago I started banking 25% of the Navy pension.
A lot of that in CDs that were allowed to grow from the interest and roll
over.
Most without those pensions need a LOT more to retire. We are fine with it.
7k a month is pretty easy to live on (smile).
