When is it time?

[WG Taxidermist]

We all know the daily grind is hard on us all especially if you have a manual labor job. The stress on your body and mind can get pretty bad at times. In saying this when do you know that enough is enough and time to cut back and enjoy life a little more. Like a lot of people I work a full time job and I also do side work in the evening and on weekends. I've have done it for years. The side work is not really for the money but it's to help people out that can't find people to do the work for them which I guess is why its so hard to give up. Anyway, I can tell the older I get the more its starting to take a toll on me.

That's me in a nutshell brother . I've been more busier since I retired mostly helping others and I'm letting things I need to get done go which is going to have to stop . It's good to help and from your post I know you enjoy helping others but there will come a time to help yourself.

I'm in the same boat.

Exactly, I keep telling myself 4 or 5 more years I'll give it up. But this country's condition and there probably won't be any social security and insurance will be unaffordable.

I dont see ever retiring voluntarily.
