Haha, no, luckily for me, I plan on doing a lot of plenty **** all for a while. The plan is 6 years, but I reckon I'd do another 2 on top, just for pension purposes. Wife has decided to go back into contracting in 2 years, so that might even come forward, depends how greedy we are.Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostSo will you be 75?

Should add a pollOriginally posted by BrilloPad View PostPersonally I reckon 75. I don't trust the government with inflation.
I have no idea. Anywhere from 10-30 years' time... if plan B became moderately successful I've no interest in being a business tycoon and would retire with £1-2m in the bank (in today's money).
I honestly can't picture what I'd be doing in 5 years (or even 2) if not my plan B.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

1) I am a contractor; I don't know what is retiring.
2) < 10 years
3) I plan to die at client site.
4) I am andyW, and I am retired in my couch.Comment

dunno. Age or how many years away. Making the options overlap or have gaps between will keep the pedants happy, i.e
30-40, 40-50
