If you think about all the things we said we should do or wanted to do through the years, there's more than enough to adequately keep you busy during "idle" years. I've a friend who retired early, forced into retirement, really, during rough times in the banking industry, and she's reminded me several times that she's just as busy now as a retiree as she ever was working as a high level executive.
