I don't see myself ever really retiring. I live in the middle of what I have always loved doing and can wander about poking my nose into it as much or as little as I want.

Sudden stops seem very bad news from what I have seen.

Wot Darwin said  :thumbsup:  Unlike Darwin, I have managers, but still enjoy the same freedoms

... and sudden stops are definitely bad news in my experience both retirement and job-wise  noooo:

Thank you. I sort of posted it for you Growler. It had me in tears and I posted it on my youngest daughters wall, she is a bit lost a the moment.

She currently lives with her father and his wife.  They pushed her into Uni which was doomed from the start, so she dropped out feeling a failure.  Her father and step mother are damaging her beyond belief and I can't do a damned thing about it.  cussing:

I left Uni after my first year. Well I came to Cyprus for the summer and never went back. I was pushed into it also. I never got the chance to really consider what course (at uni and in life) I wanted to take so settled for what Ma n Pa wanted, left, and have felt I let them down ever since.
 Had I been given the time to make my own choices things may have ended differently. However, I'm glad they didn't.

You probably did a useful degree that has served you well in your career. Have you seen the amount of pointless, stupid courses on offer now?

Yes I have, and it is no wonder society is failing to produce people who know which way is up.  noooo:

I like the idea of a "career" by the way.   ;)
