I used to work at an independent retirement community. Retirement (if you're lucky!) is for a lot longer than some people really think about... and a lot of people after the first couple of years of being retired were unsure of what to do with themselves. So I think it's actually a great thing to think about and try to plan for!

Something I haven't seen mentioned in the thread is that if there are hobbies you gave up for a other things when you were younger, retirement is the perfect time to pick those hobbies up again (art, writing, woodwork, calligraphy, dance-whatever floats your boat!). Signing up for classes is also a good way to meet new people, and making new friends can be a way to add new activity to your life, too.

A lot of people who end up depressed are those who figure it's too late by the time they've reached retirement... but you're not dead yet. Thinking about all the things you can do in retirement is a great way to avoid ending up with that mentality and sitting inside lost all day.

One must not dread retirement, but rather be excited for it. You have a lot of free time in your hands and you can do anything you please....provided that you have enough savings and is in good health. So while you are still young, it is necessary to prepare for a happy retirement. Take care of your health and have an LTC plan which will cover your health care needs.
