I look at my Social (In)Security statement every year, and all things being equal -- that is, if I'm still physically able to work that long -- it's a no-brainer; I plan to keep at it until at least 70 and possibly beyond. Lacking a huge nest-egg and with a 401K that didn't get off the ground until my 40s, that's the option I've left myself.

But financial considerations aside, I like what I do for a living and firmly believe that working is a good thing even if you can afford to retire earlier. My 70-something mom still works so that's been my example. What do you think? Are you counting the days until you can say "take this job and ...", or is employment in some form part of your senior scenario?

As I remember it, my professors were these Mr. Know-it-all guys, who told us the same information we read in our textbooks, wrote the information we had to memorize [ in order to answer the questions on the tests ] on the blackboard, + told us when or why we were wrong when we answered questions. I forgot most of this stuff.
I think I needed to learn more about,
1,how to suck up
2,how to exploit people
3,how to lie on a job application without getting caught

Three women go down to Mexico one night, get drunk, and wake up in jail, only to find that they are to be executed in the morning, though none of them can remember what they did the night before.

The first one, a redhead, is strapped in the electric chair, and is asked if she has any last words. She says, "I am from Grace University, and believe in the almighty power of God to intervene on the behalf of the innocent," They throw the switch and nothing happens.

They all immediately prostrate themselves; beg for her forgiveness, and release her.

The second one, a brunette, is strapped in and gives her last words, "I am from the Creighton School of Law and I believe in the power of justice to intervene on the part of the innocent." They throw the switch and again, nothing happens.

Again, they all immediately prostrate themselves; beg for her forgiveness, and release her.

The last one, a blonde, is strapped in and says, "Well, I'm from the University of Alabama, Huntsville and just graduated with a degree in Electrical Engineering, and I'll tell you right now, you ain't gonna electrocute nobody if you don't plug this thing in."

My nomination would be a clean, dirt-cheap source of power to make electricity. Nuclear fusion? Think of electric powered vehicles everywhere, electric pumps at rivers in Africa, refrigeration in remote tropical places, lower cost production and transportaion of necessities, etc. What do you think?

I've read into this a lot.
Ran into the people that swear by it and those that swear it's utter crap.

Read various metaphysical discourses on it, and gotten the perspective from most major religions.

What I'm asking is this.

Have YOU had an experience where this has worked for you?
If so, what was it?
