Retire from fulfilling other people's shonky and thoughtless expectations. My mother died happy at 95 and a half. She was fully aware her body had reached its used by date. Having no parents to care for now I also have no one to be accountable to. Freedom to live like there is no tomorrow. No one to impress. Never had children. Each day is an adventure.

In one year, 5 of my friends and work colleagues died. None from old age. One very happy young man died right at my feet as paramedics worked on him in our office. I made a decision then and there that I was not going to spend the life I had left in an office cubicle. I put my plan in motion and retired at 59 1/2. I also removed myself from the extremely stressful and demanding American environment. Best decisions of my life!

I effectively retired at 55, still do jobs to help out life long friends, just buried my dad, dementia took him a few years ago. Im an only child and had to clear out his house myself, its just so frickin pointless and sad, everything he was is in a skip, nobody wants anything, Ive kept a box of stuff and I'll never open it. Youre gone and forgotten within months..for ever, he outlived all his friends, wives and girlfriends by five years and it was five years of confusion and decay. Ive got twenty years before it happens to me, Ive shut out all the dheads in my life, they dont care, but Ive realised I dont care about their families except for the few friends who are real, the ones who rang me when he died, helped me deal with the crap. I look at all the crp I have, just putting it in the bin every day and not shedding a tear.

3 years ago I watched my 72 year old father die fairly suddenly and ever since I've thought a lot about all his plans for his retirement and how short his retirement was. Some of his investments for his retirement matured this year, quite some time after his death. I turn 47 next year and I've really changed my perspective on living life.

Great video! At 65, still working because I love what I do, I just don't worry about how long I will be here or worry about missing out on something that I did or did not do. I do have a strong faith that we all go back to the spiritual world, which is much better than here, but that is just my opinion....who really knows?? I am blessed to be healthy and happy now - I live for the present and do my best to prepare for the future, but I just don't stress about it. People live and people die...there really isn't much you can do to change the flow of life! I have served in the world of healthcare (RRT) and have seen a ton of good and bad, happy and sad. It has given me a world of service of patients and working in incredible teams of other healthcare professionals, housekeepers, maintenance workers, etc., who have definitly enriched my life. I enjoy them all while I am here and wish them love and peace when I am gone!

Interesting approach. I'm 66 and retired. I can see that I am falling into the trap that many older guys do, of becoming isolated. I'm happy to be solitary most of the time, and like the peace of it, but I also like to see people too. Without work, though, and especially without family as is my situation, it can be easy to end up hardly seeing anyone, ever. I'm quite content, but one potentially unhealthy aspect of contentment is that it can result in lack of any great impetus to achieve anything in particular. What do I want? To be healthy and fit, including mentally, and part of that is to find some kind of purpose to provide meaning. I'll add the view from the perspective of what I don't want; isolation to an extreme, and potentially cognitively unhealthy, extent. Cheers.

My mother died at 52; my sister, 18 mos. younger than me, died at 57. I am 65, turning 66 in March. I was retired from a job role that dissolved May 2024. Best thing that could have happened, because I would have stayed working (I loved my career) through next year. Yes, I would have loved to have that time to sock away more savings. But I am already past the expiration date for the women in my family, so I have no illusions that I will live to a ripe age. My next chapter? What am I doing? Moving to France in May as a base to do all the European/Mediterranean travel I have said, for years, "I'll do it someday". Really appreciate your clear, blunt (in a good way) takes on things, Nick.

Four years ago I was watching television one evening and my mobile phone went. I saw on the screen it was the wife of my closest friend Pete. We'd been best friends for nearly thirty years. He'd watched my children grow up and they called him Uncle Pete. I'd been best man at his wedding (I was already married when we became mates) and I'd always played an active part in the lives of his children too. I was closer to him than to my own brothers. Her voice was shaking and she said 'I've got some bad news'. I thought 'oh, shit. Her dad has died' - as he'd been ill for a while. The she said "Pete is dead". I'll just take a break. I'm back. She'd been out with the girls and come back to find him lying dead on the kitchen floor. He was 57. I jumped in the car and went straight up. The paramedics were just leaving and the police had just arrived. He was lying on the floor with a blanket around him up to his chest looking like he was having a nap. Except his face was grey. This was at about half eight in the evening and they didn't finally take him away until half two in the morning. We sat next to him all that while. Sorry I'm going on a bit but it helps to write about it. I've been broken hearted ever since and feel the loss terribly. I could also write a lot about how grief counselling for people who've lost close friends, especially grown men, is very patchy indeed. But a huge impact on me was the suddenness. I kept looking at his feet thinking when he put those socks on he had no idea that that was last time he'd ever put on a pair of socks. He had no idea he was living his final day. So now, although I don't do stupid things to consciously put my health and safety at risk. I had a brother who died of a cancer caused by drinking too much and smoking. But I try not to deny myself any pleasure or experience just in case it's bad for me. I don't do things that are a misery or a chore just because it'll be good for me or make me live a few years longer. When my wife tells me off for having a bacon sandwich or a glass of wine I just say "I want to enjoy my life not just endure it for as long as possible." Btw the post mortem showed he'd died of a burst artery in his abdomen (Abdominal aortic aneurysm) which is unusual for someone so young.

A life goal, if chosen, should align with one’s purpose and potential, maximizing both personal growth and contributions to society. Logical pursuits are those that bring fulfillment without succumbing to fleeting emotional whims. It would be illogical to pursue goals without understanding their potential consequences or alignment with one’s core principles. Balance ambition with reason. I would emphasize the importance of self-awareness, logic, and the consideration of others in setting meaningful goals.

Stuff that you will not use or will not miss if it's gone Pile 4 is automatically discard/donate. If you're serious about decluttering, most or all of Pile 3 follows.

My job is easier than it’s ever been and I should do another year or two to have a comfortable retirement but I think I’m going to cut the cord in May and have a more moderate retirement …. difficult decision but I’m not happy and as you said I have no idea how long I’ve got left

Apparently become manager of a large utility....... sigh. Im only 49 and this is the last move for me. The final push and pad my pension. I dont even really want to do it and will be fine staying right where I am but with all the turnovers there is nobody else who can do it. I no that sounds clique, but in this field, experience is everything and there is nobody.... Im the last man standing. I figure I will do it for 10 years and be out the door at 59. A few years later than I want but they need my help and it will make me feel good to prep the next generation to take over the wheel.

And who will remember you, or thank you, for another 10 years of your limited time doing something you have no desire to do? NOBODY.

Maybe focus on training up a few younger members of the team for the next year or so and then quit? Life is too short to spend doing what we don't want to do and we are a long time dead.

I have found 'now' is always the perfect time not to do something.

great stuff i like the idea of Anti Goals ,but i never had any of note recently , i was in my younger days never very ambitious , even famous Mountain climbers have to come back down eventually , so reaching the top seemed like a waste of time and effort :} a goal if you can call it that was to be true to yourself

The end of Conan The Barbarian he sits on his throne thinking what now. That sums up the human being and the theme park mindset. The easiest way to enjoy your life is to be grateful your not dead yet and realise you could die any moment 😂 be the joker as Alan Watts might say.

Ènjoyed your video and message. Not sure about your anti-goals though. Just focus on what matters , not on what doesn't. Looks like health, family, new experiences, and simplicity for you?

That sounds like a terrible experience but something good at least has come out of it. I just went to take part in Our Future Health today and while the test results were not bad,my cholesterol and body fat is a bit high so my new year year's resolution will be to reduce these.
