Happy FriYay!! We made it!!
This morning after receiving my new mortgage payment after my most recent, I have been concerned about my finances. No coincidence that I am starting to do live sales on my closet app to sell down my inventory plus thinking part time at Walmart even as a greeter or stocker.
My employer doesn’t give out raises because for most of the employees receive commissions that change so the base pay is based on experience while their commissions are based on performance. Unfortunately, I do back room admin so no extra income for me unless I get a bonus. Truthfully, cost of living increases would improve morale and productivity over a raise which each of us who working hard and smart deserve.
Truthfully, I don’t believe that I will ever truly retire because it’s difficult for me to not do anything unless I have purpose during my post work life.
Please share your experience in your near retirement years. What would you tell someone who is planning his/her retirement? Your kids? My Dad’s post retirement was of an antique shop and perennial gardens with my Mom before he passed away of cancer at Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. How is your retirement?
Thank you for stopping by,
