I am relatively young and still have a lot of debts in the form of loans. One of my coworkers was telling me about how since I don’t have children (and the expenses that go along with them) and we make a decent wage at my company, I could play my cards right and maybe even retire early.

But I just can’t picture myself retiring at all. To be honest, I have absolutely no idea what I would do with my spare time. I’m a fairly socially anxious person with few, if any, connections to others. It’s going to work every day that gets me out of bed and socializing. And I get along well with my coworkers. I can’t imagine one day no longer doing that. It might honestly make me depressed.

I’ll probably just work for as long as possible then cut down to something like part time or a PRN position.
