Yes!!! I am officially retired! Just think, I used to say, "Oh, I'll never retire!" Just remember... Never say never!
My path to full retirement has been progressive since I VERY early retired back in 2011. In 2011, I resumed working full time in 2 weeks, but in the private sector. In 2014, I had enough so, I started teaching once a week. After 3 years, I noted very dark nature of students in the for-profit sector. Very dark and menacing. Totally beneath my standards as an educator who upholds quality education.
My last day to teach was in June 2018. I rejected an offer to teach in July 2018. I am happy with my decision! Never compromise quality standards!!!
Now I am fully retired and enjoying it. Listen, at some point, we all must retire, but we better have a good plan to enjoy retirement. Hence, my subsequent blogs will be about what I am doing during my very welcomed retirement.
Right now, let make clear what I plan on NOT doing during retirement:
- Volunteering- those days are over! I did a lot of volunteering when I was working. Organizations tend to "use" good volunteers.
- Sit around the house- got to stay active.
What I plan to do?.... Stay tuned to my upcoming blogs!!!!
