Small Business Boomers

I’m on the Road to Retirement !

by Jean on September 17th, 2008

I turned in my resignation at my “day” job yesterday and I’m counting down the days.  I’m going to stay on part-time for a few months, but I will have much more time at home to do the things I want to do.

Why am I retiring now, when I’m only 60?  Three reasons:

1.  I want to spend more time with my grandchildren and the rest of my family,

2.  I want to travel, before I have to do it with a walker, and

3.  I have many, many books to write and other income ideas to work on.

Here’s my short list of stuff I want to do:

  • Blog for Small Business Boomers, of course
  • Quilt
  • Build up my About.com site: U.S. Business Law and Taxes
  • Write a book about how to start and run a quilting business
  • Do more quilting
  • Write a novel like A Thousand Acres
  • 21zcnhasnbl_sl160_.jpgGet a dog
  • Volunteer with SCORE
  • Write a book to help baby boomers start their businesses
  • Do more quilting

…you get the idea.

How about you? What is the first thing you would do if you were able to retire?
