No John, financially it doesn't sound like you will have to work again. It does depend on your lifestyle choices, current debt and expenses. That is a very nice position to be in. You must be a great contributor to get that kind of a retirement package. You can choose your own working conditions. If decide you'd like to work again. If I where in your positon at 40, when taking retirement I would kick back and relax for a while to congratulate myself. Travel. Then get back to work for the love of it or you'll get soft and mushy. Please may I have your job when your done with it?

Depending... of course.

Thanks for the tip,

Jen

If you don't have a hobby then you may want to work, by the way congratulations you are in the top 2% of the American work force that is able to actually retire with enough to actually live on.
