I'm hoping to retire in the next 12 months (52 years old). When I do, I'll be buying a Chromebook. Any and all PC-related shit is being sold off.
I will quite literally never write a line of code again... with any luck!
- rootusrootus 4mo agoSame age, but I gotta hang on a little longer. I'm a little too anxious about sequence risk in the market environment we're in now. But otherwise I'm with you, when I retire I may well dump nearly all of my technology and go back to stone tablets, metaphorically speaking. Sometimes I get so tired of it. Ironically, though, my work environment is pretty good, it's everything we're doing in tech outside my office work that gets me down.
- reylas 4mo agoJust curious, what are you doing for healthcare. I can retire money wise soon, but healthcare is an issue. May have to work 10 more years just because of that.
- SoftTalker 4mo agoIf you don't have much income, healthcare.gov plans are pretty cheap. Some people will just risk doing without. Most will be fine; that's how insurance works.

- sunsetSamurai 4mo agoif you're in the US, ACA is an option, but it'll be expensive if you don't qualify for any subsidies.
- floren 4mo agoYes, that's a concern for me too, I'd like to retire early but healthcare has me wondering about getting a job as a teacher or something just to make sure I can afford it if I get cancer at 55.
- zikduruqe 4mo agoI'm just a little bit older, and have to work a little longer due to some personal things. But, as it stands today, I rarely touch any tech outside of work. Heck, I seldom ever bring my cell phone outside the home. I long for the day, I can close my laptop lid and not open it again.
