This is much harder if you run your own business.

Good points

I met a couple of over-retirement-age truck drivers working out of Masterton 3 days a week driving concrete trucks - they reckoned it was great to be earning and have the pension and a 4 day weekend too - sounds like a nice balance

Im nearly 76 and fit a day or sometimes 2 of work in a week. Pads out the retirement funds and keeps me current and my mind active. Off to the UK for 5 weeks in a few days. I'm gagging to get home already and I haven't left yet :)

Good on you.
