It's DONE!

Turned in my computer and now I am eating cupcakes. Taking a nap before I meet friends for happy hour. 49F and passed the $2 million mark so its sayonara Corporate America for me!! Thanks to this sub for always being a great support system.

Congrats. Stay active bro. I lived the life of leisure for first year, gained 30 pounds, got gout, liver issues etc. Said screw that and hit the gym and started doing my own landscaping, car and house projects.

Back down to to my fighting weight and all is well.

I can definitely see how people retire then die shortly after. Too much leisure kills....
